Very disappointed in the VX3i 4.5 - 14 vs the VX3i 3.5 - 10. Both had dial up turrets. Might have improved them with the HD. 10x is plenty for reasonably long range shots IMO. Can't see how an...

Had a late 2013 D-Max which had a $900 40K service bill. After that I did my own servicing and changed the oil every 10k. Never had the slightest issue with that ute over the next 10 years (150+...
The 140m shoots slightly better the 143x in my Tikka 6.5 CM.
Unfortunately, that looks like the reality of the situation.
Not exactly. The questions are answered on the laptop at the time of the interview however, the vetter has to do a detailed report with a recommendation of every person interviewed in a firearm...
It's $180 now Neil. That includes $60 for the shooting complex annual fee.
On checking my primer situation this morning I found a full box of 1,000 Federal Premium LR Match primers plus 2x full 100 trays and a part tray with about 80 primers of the same. All these are...
The South Waikato NZDA still exists although it has very few current members. Most former members have joined the new club, the "South Waikato Hunting Club". It was felt that the NZDA annual fees had...
It's amazing how greedy and money worshipping some of our fellow kiwis are.
I was charged around $30 USD postage for two Anschutz action screws a couple of years back. They wouldn't send the items in an envelope packet but insisted on a small box that would've held 100...
Agreed on not supporting the NZ Herald. They're almost as biased as Stuff.
Scott showed me this rifle when he had it about a year ago. Beautiful condition.
A friend and myself ordered from Ron Dent (Reloaders owner back then) two single shot heavy barrel (varmint) Sako...
Belzona 1111 is a superior product to Devon 10110. It's basically liquid steel and used for among other things, repairing damaged turbine blades. About $350 a small tub though.
Found Marinetex...
That's correct. The renewal of the 5 year licence will then revert to 10 years thereafter, unless the legislation gets changed of course, which is possible. The logic given for the 5 year licence for...
Thanks for the input guys. I'll be including optilock rings, suppressor and 75 rounds of ammo (Lapua brass, March primers & Sierra 150 GK's).
I have a relative who wants to buy my Sako Finnlight II .308 with a DPT Mk II suppressor. The rifle is in perfect, unmarked condition, hasn't shot many rounds and groups 150 gr Sierra Gameking in to...
Was your Voere made in Germany? The earlier German Voere .22 LR bolt action had two optional settings on the trigger, which enabled either a 1st or 2nd stage trigger. Easy to see and adjust once the...
My first rifle in December 1968 was a made in Germany, Voere bolt action same the middle rifle in the OP's pics for $44 new. It was beech stained walnut. A friend at that time bought the de-luxe...
There's obviously several costs and people involved, as you say. I don't know where the $200 figure arises from, apart from the suggestion that No.3 seems to think that the firearms vettor is the...
Good, common sense advice including the idea of leaving a note, presuming the thief can read which isn't guaranteed these days with school curriculum's under Labour being what they are.
How do I know? Obviously though, there is a lot more work done on a licence than just the vettors input. There must be background checks, transport and printing and the Arms Officer's salary. You...
I was interviewed a couple of weeks back for a friend who was renewing his licence. The vetter was a very friendly and knowledgeable, rural lady in her early 30's. She told me that they're expected...
I would've thought your local Arms officer should quickly be able to tell you what category you hold. You'll find incompetence in most businesses at some point though. Try dealing with Spark as an...
Having a protection order granted by the Family Court has always led to a suspension of a FAL and surrender of your firearms. You have the option of contesting the protection order and if successful...
How can the word, "suspect" be incorrect?
"have an idea or impression of the existence, presence, or truth of (something) without certain proof".
Just kidding. ;) We all know what you meant....
