    You are lucky I am sporting for you at the Toby shoot. I might ask your daughter to spot for me if your sight is that bad ! :-)

    To be fair, the bolt was hidden in plain sight. I am not sure that Ashleigh will be there.
    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

    New to me ('61) SLR. I've had a couple of them before, but both were synthetic stocks. Having the wood is so much nicer! And the early pattern carry handle was also a bonus.

    only fired a 22 air rifle before then.....
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

    Oh the memories that brings back. I loved the aperture rear sight. Five rounds into a matchbox sized area at 100 yards standing unsupported. Fuck I wish I could still shoot like that.

    SLRs have the best looking flash hiders out of the FAL family IMHO. Now you just need a bayonet to go with it.

    are the handles on those SLR's perfectly positioned for balance and nice to carry?

    Perfect balance, these early wooden handles rotate too, unlike the later plastic ones. But it has worn the parkerising off the receiver (even has a slight groove) when its folded over to the side.

    Top one is new..... Zastava PAP M90NP AK made in Serbia. Chambered in 5.56x45mm and came from the factory with a AR Mag adapter.
    Signature removed because some people are intolerant of me being American.

    Some of you might have seen this in its "slapped together" guise. Rem700 action, 26" Shillen 1 in 8" twist chambered in 6.5-284, Ken Henderson carbon fibre stock, leupold VX3i LR 4.5-14x50. Big thanks to @7mmsaum @Kiwi Greg @ebf @Carpe Diem @SlimySquirrel @Dr. Watson @buzzman and anyone else I have missed who all helped bring it together. Need to get some more brass (I have 13...) and will get a load going, I'm thinking 140amax.

    Nice but you can't take that to Dubai
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out
