    I would assume the barrels will be custom split cane with a budget conscious bamboo option?

    That would be the "eco-friendly option"
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    Yes I got his dealers licence

    Being rural delivery it can be interesting, NZ post don't, won't knowingly carry anything firearm related, not a problem until there is an issue, delivery times can be woe full.

    It pays to be a little careful, its only a cheap product, easily replaceable after all, insurance won't even cover half its value, if I had to make a claim it will take ages & "I'm sorry Sir that is a prohibited item, there is no cover"

    It will be at the Fastway depot tomorrow once I have that address

    I meet Mark and have few of my "little" rifles worked by him, he is a very nice guy and absolutely capable and precise, he will give his best in your project.
    @Kiwigreg, if you still don't have his contact details i can send it to you.

    Great rifle @Tikka7mm08, i may find a excuse to go and see Mark one of these days.
