Re: Next time someone compares Australia

Interesting article.. However, comparing Australia to the US in virtually any metric is dishonest, except land mass size. Approximately 90% of Australia is inhabited by Australian or European descendants. Most of the rest are Chinese or Indian [from wikipedia..]. There are 50% more African American...

Next time someone compares Australia

Next time some one compares the mass buy back and disarmament of law abiding citizens in Australia and says oh it's so safe there now. https://www.smh.com.au/national/queensland/outgunned-police-need-a-rifle-in-every-squad-car-brisbane-cop-says-20180228-p4z279.html Just remember that it an absolute ...

Re: So how cold is it??

Dam that's cold. It's 25C here at the moment. I was up country before Christmas and had to shoot into Christchurch and get the car tinted out because the kids were getting cooked and sunburnt while we were travelling. You can keep the sub zero stuff. Worst it gets in Southland is maybe -5C I work in...

Re: 2018 shooting challenge

What's the metric equivalent of a dime.

I do it to all of mine. lighter pull and smooths them out. Takes the 8 lb pull down to 3.5-5 lb. will cost you nothing. If not what you want/like you can always buy something.
