    Good stuff. Fantastic to so see.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Love the 'wrap around' smile. Well done.

    Hes spent the last 3 years in the maimai on opening , this year will his first with a gun. Pointer and me have allocated all finishing shots on woundies to Dre, just tossing up between an Akkar 28g in semi or pump for him.

    the semi

    yes,H&F have them. not a bad price. ammo mai mai supp. $110 a slab. 71/2's is all you will need. akkar are a proven design.i would get the semi.better resale,easier transitional to move up a gauge later on.

    @upnorth uplander Sportsways are having their closing down sale. I think they had a churchill (rebranded AKKar) 20g semi for $450
