    If we don't do our bit to keep the cans under control now, we may not live long enough to have to worry about Zombie Apocalypse...

    That'd be a hell of a shame, I was quite looking forward to it, too...

    Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.

    Dunno about down there but up here I was told that they strongly prefer people to get B-cat licenses, I guess because it takes the pressure off the club guns.

    http://www.centralshooters.co.nz/pistol-licence-process

    That's a pretty concise summary of the process for anyone who is interested but basically it is:

    Get A-cat license
    Join gun club and Pistol NZ
    Shoot 12 times in 6 months and also complete a basic pistol shooting course, normally run by the gun club
    Get a form filled out by a few people, extra referees (other shooters preferred) etc. It gets posted off to wellington and bounced around a bit.
    Install safe (mine cost $200, same requirements as E-cat but smaller!)
    Get interviewed and your safe inspected.

    For me the most difficult bit was actually figuring out how to get the safe mounted. They have a few odd little requirements like if it is going to be on a wooden floor, making up a pull plate that spans the floor joists and it not being allowed to be in a building that isn't normally occupied (no shed) although this can be got around if the building is in plain view in a populated area.

    Basically, I haven't met anyone at all who shoots with the club pistols at CSI who wasn't planning to get their B-cat. There are some bloody good value .357 revolvers available on gunstuff at the moment and the occaisional cheap semi-auto has popped up as well. If you're serious about it just have a chat to anyone you see there about their pistols, what their likes and dislikes are about them and then see if you can put a few rounds down range. Just from chatting to other people at CSI I've got to play with some pretty damn neat pistols ranging from a .44 magnum desert eagle to a walther target pistol firing .22CBs that had a bad habit of firing multiple shots with each pull of the trigger (which was, of course, a fault that the guy was intending to get fixed right away!)... We seem to be a pretty friendly bunch for the most part and most are happy to see other people getting some enjoyment from their toys as well...

    Rest assured that your gentlemanly manner will be 100% ignored and unrewarded by the Zombies gnawing on your intestines.

    I, on the other hand, would prefer to keep said intestines intact and in place...

    Hilarious post on the NSA forums about a state representative in Vermont interpreting the constitution as a requirement to keep oneself armed and ready (or alternatively register yourself for a non-firearm-owner license)... Love it, brilliant idea...

    The Zombie Apocalypse will not recognise or adhere to "Queensbury Rules".

    Nor the Geneva or Hague Conventions either, so I'm feeling it's my duty to my family to get "experimental" with projectiles...


    On an unrelated note, does anyone know where I could find a largeish supply of the old-style mercury thermometers?

    I ask merely out of idle curiosity...

    I hear a hollow point .22 with a plastercine sealing cap over some mercury will cut a strainer post in two....

    I've done a bit of fencing so I sincerely hope that this will only be tried on your own personal strainer posts...
