How should one store a rifle and ammo while camping?

[Title_II]

Trigger lock and remove the bolt? It's just a gun. I'm pretty sure you are not going to wake up and shoot yourself.

ROTFL.. I usually just lay my rifle down beside me in the tent before going to sleep. When I wake up I give it a hug

Try bringing a woman

Although if I had to choose...

classic movie...

like the politician who responds an accusation by stating the "rumours were never proven...."

It's interesting that we have all these laws and regulations, and very little to nil information from the Government on how to actually deal with situations like this...

Almost as though this question is too difficult for the legislators who make the rules to even answer for themselves...

For instance, what does one do when staying at a motel room and wanting to go out for a meal for the evening? Store in the car, or motel room?

The only thing that seems to be clear is that if the firearms do get stolen, regardless of how many precautions one has taken - it's still your fault and you can be charged.

I just rest it up against a tree.

Our Greens would have you believe there are gangs of Bikies roaming the wilderness stealing guns off us left, right and centre

So how do you open the beer ? Thinking back to the Simpsons episode where Homer gets a gun

And you need some way to change channels on the TV when you lose the remote too.

Then you should have it ready to go. But I am probably preaching to the choir.

Now the law has stuck it to Sydney Fox Rescue maybe they can redirect their efforts to rehoming those feral bikies

Or better yet, rock up at a state forest to be yelled at by "children of the earth" that hunting is forbidden

[gazza]

In the same place you would store anything else that size you didn't want stolen, wet or misused.

I'm thinking of Warburton....the road heading up the hills have multi coloured crap hanging from the trees, vans with peacey symbols painted, women with hairy pits....kids in nappies running around, blokes with dreds....

> CAREFULLY

Rifles locked up in the car, Mossberg U/O loaded, safety on and muzzle down in the swag with me. If a snake makes the mistake of trying to slither into the swag then I want to be prepared

You mates have those, too? They are called smelly hippies. They hate water, throw a bucket of water and a bar of soap at them and they will all melt. Problem solved.
