    Sounds like the project is coming along nicely big_foot
    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

    Sorry about the delay, only a year

    Its been one of those hour here, hour there jobs. Extremely slow progress(no hammering etc. while kids are sleeping) and when I do get down there Ive usaully got a 2.5 yr old apprentice.

    Anyway moving in day finally rolled around, I got it to a standard I was happy to put gear in there although still the odd little job needs doing. Still looking a bit bare but soon sort that out.

    The rack is the old mans he shot in Pureora in the early 60's.

    Did you end up making it e cat complaint?
    I didn't think you would be able to have a whole room compliant, but I spose it's just like one huge gun safe.
