    Great read and well done matey
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    That is perfectly OK Moonhunt.
    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

    Gotta sort that out. After Rushy moves I think we need to organise trip south. Rushys shout

    Mind you I'm still trying to get down Cams way, stupid people having birthdays and engagement partys screwing up my plans.

    I definitely have Cam, it's a credit to the forum, I never stop raving about it. Everyone thinks I'm strange, meeting up with randoms from the internet, but I've only met a couple unsavoury characters... rushy and gibo... you watch out for those mongrels

    I had the rifle slid down the side of my pack, bolt and ammo separate (obviously). I explained to people who picked me up that I was a hunter, no one seemed to be worried. Farmers don't care, some foreigners I think would because in many countries having a gun like that is not the done thing haha I guess it just depends where they're from.
    Yeah nah bro

    You gotta get down there! Cheap as chips really. You can get flights into ChCh for $39, that's nothing. I saved a lot of money on accommodation by spending most of my time in the bush.
