The antis dont even understand the firearms about which they preach, Sam Lee was pontificating the other day and stated that military style semiautos are more dangerous than civilian style because they are capable of being fired at a faster rate. This is the ignorance cloaked in righteous indignatio...

That's piss poor, but unfortunately, no longer surprising.

It would be interesting to know if the owners, board or whomever makes such decisions did it on their own initiative or whether some commercial pressures were applied.

Media and politics can, by nature, be divisive but removing it is akin to banning semiautomatics for everyone because a few misused them. I have been guilty of getting carried away at times, nothing I'm proud of, but hey, I'm human, I have my foibles like everyone else. Perhaps if topics causing acr...

In the context of horrible mass shootings...I think the USA leads the way to a point beyond sanity. I sleep better knowing that my kids are 99.9999% safe at school - that might be a little lower if I lived in the USA... The US has a problem with morality, not guns. Take away all their guns and they...

I have never really agreed with the cost of ammo being the top deciding factor in purchasing a firearm. Maybe it’s because I don’t do as much shooting as some of you guys and that’s fair enough and I understand if shooting is your job but i find it strange that recreational shooters will make their...

I have often wondered that myself.
Now we both know.

No foil hat needed to have a healthy mistrust of political knee-jerkers JSS. That's exactly how they look at things. I heard an interview last night with an NZ anti-gun panic merchant calling for a total ban on all guns from civilian hands. His claim that the only thing guns are good for is killing ...

Well NSW just going to pass laws for a 2 year trial, where if you have a drug conviction in the last 10 years cops do not need a warrant to search your house I find it pretty hard to believe that one will get passed, not even for the trail period. It sounds like a bit of "tough on crime" ...

I could be thinking of something else, it's late and there has been a large amount of ethanol ingestion, but I seem to recall a sabot 12g round that got the attention of Nanny and was banned as a submunition. Mind you, at this stage of chemical enhancement I might just be imagining typing this. I'll...

I bought a trigger kit from gunbloke a couple of months ago, through paypal, so it sounds like a new policy. If they're going to join the persecution, I'll be looking for another option. I bought a muzzle brake off Gunbloke just last week, paid with Paypal. There you go, sounding more like a new po...

I just had a look at my paypal transaction and the payment was listed as going to gunbloke.
If they were that sensitive, and this was an old policy, one would imagine that the name gunbloke would be a giveaway.
Sounds like something new to me.

The other day i bought some stuff online from an Aussie manufacturer of gun bits, they had a paypal payment option which i always use if available for a place i've never dealt with before. Anyway their paypal option wouldn't work which i thought was odd so i shot them a quick email asking if it was...

There should be a bounty for the scalp of anyone stupid enough to do this. In the latest round of what can only be called borderline militant stupidity, steel spikes have been found after destroying a four-wheel driver’s tyres, in the Toolangi State Forest in Victoria. We’ve been told that unfortuna...

H'day Cal, I have the 24" fluted varmint, and yes it's a heavy bugger. Although having said that, it's in a billet chassis with nearly a kilo of scope and a bipod on it bringing it to 6.5kg all up. With the original stock and a smaller scope it would be less of a lump. It doesn't matter for me ...

(2) In this section— applies force includes the case of applying heat, light, electrical force, gas, odour , or any other substance or thing whatever if applied in such a degree as to cause injury or personal discomfort .

This was a great meeting, very positive and discussions remained respectable between stores and QPS. Glad it reamained respectable, I hate meetings where people start stripping off :sarcasm: But seriously, good to see QPS aren't following the lunacy in NSW, as below: http://www.sportingshooter.com....

No spring, an inert gas is compressed in the cylinder and acts as the spring. Supposed to be more consistent, but springers work just fine. Also not as much 'twang' Yeah, springer for me too. The first spring on my old Meteor lasted me nearly 40yrs, can't complain there. No pumps no bottles or othe...

Hide your hat DB

Thanks DB, that's about what I thought.
Regulations made up by someone with a high IQ and no common sense.

But if I am using a 338lap or 50cal...... can I still shoot in heart? And for that matter if anyone shot a kangaroo with a 105mm how can they tell if the shell hit the head or the body :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm: Not a silly question Ziad, it's something I have wondered about. Then agai...

+1 on the Meteor.
Had one for nearly 40years, only had to put a new spring and seals in it last year.

Thanks for the unnecessary sarcasm 49er. I was obviously mistaken in my view that this was a forum where those with already acquired knowledge of a subject make it available to those seeking it.This in order that they do not have to spend hours trolling the self same internet. If this is your idea ...

Having a slow morning this morning, I've been googling poop, Christ only knows what the google algorithms will be loading my pages with now, it probably thinks I'm a coprophile :roll: Anyway, after much poop perusal, I'm no closer. It could be wombat, but as it's on the ground and not on a pedestal ...

G'day GS, Mate, if you think trying to call the FAR is disheartening, I have been trying to contact Cvnterlink for the last 2 days to change some details they insist have to be updated promptly. I sh!t you not, 87 unsuccessful attempts in 2 days. The only time I did get through was to a computer tha...
