   Along the lines of your comments, I recently gifted a single shot Lithgow .22 to my grandsons. The rifle was my fathers when he was a boy and was the rifle my brothers and I first used. It is truly...

   Mines a keeper, it's my goto 223 and I can't see it being replaced with anything else anytime soon. For years I lusted after a Sako 75 or 85 in 223 but the CZ 600 has cured me of that! But it's...

   Not a firearm; but a heirloom can certainly mean anything. I class my dad's old hand post rammer as a heirloom (to me). It would mean nothing to anyone else. Everytime I use the handmade rammer to...

   Yeah I got my grandads/dads 1950s Browning Trombone - it'll be handed down to my kids. I used to hunt with it as a kid (12?), old man used to go salmon fishing and I'd bugger off for the day with a...

   To me a heirloom quality firearm will be a one off that has been made to a specific clients order. At the minimum "hand finished" with all mechanicals perfectly tuned and operating flawlessly. The...

   I haven't watched the NZ episodes (will do now though) - but I have watched the last 3 seasons - I can see some of the reasons they may not like the NZ hunting scene, some of them I agree with. ...

   Jamesyd liked post by Savage1 On thread : Boot help

   To qualify that link a bit. I think big heavy leather boots are overrated, old tech, I prefer a much lighter boot, as long as the pack is under 20kg I'd be happy with trail shoes. You definitely...

    Yes it is all made in NZ. I had considdered just using Sig stocks but figured I can do better cost wise and make it lighter at the same time. The butt stock only weighs about 200 grams which is a 3rd...

    Jamesyd liked post by mopheadrob On thread : Boot help

    Typical pack weight makes a difference to what I’d recommend. Light pack / day trips can get away with something light & flexible, but heavy packs need a stiffer shank. Good ankle support is a...
