The firearm thread

which then proceeds to fly about 3-4 metres and smack me between the eyes... edge on!

Motherf*cker!!

I picked up a Remy .22 pump action recently, pulled the scope and refitted iron sights, at the range yesterday dialling it in, cycled the action and suddenly one of my fingers was experiencing searing pain - I'd squashed it between the pump and receiver...

[hospitalfood]

well......im gagging to get my gun off.
have not made it to the range for a few weeks now.
war movie on telly tonight which will make it worse.
misses gets upset when i unload out the kitchen window.

wish i could just let a few off around the section.
some of my toys are seriously neglected at present coz i seem to spend time working on the house or riding.

i think we need a new law that says we can shoot from our bikes.

Wait until you use a '94 (or similar) and forget to keep your trigger finger far enough forwards when working the lever...

Or have your thumb inside the ejection slot of an A5 Browning when you (accidently) hit the bolt release...

Oh the fun

Oh the agony!!

You mean we cant?

oh goodness me does this mean when I have taken those pheasants walking on the side of the road I was performing a criminal act.

Oh dear I must go and flagelate myself

Remember as a kid my old man telling me about the Sten Gun and how if you held it wrong you were very likely to loose the last joint on your little finger.

The pain.

Caught the web, between thumb and first finger, under the hammer of a revolver I was cleaning, once. S&W 686. The firing pin punched a nice neat hole all the way through. Bled like 40 virgins.

Yup. This shooting lark is dangerous... before you put any ammunition anywhere near a gun!

The Gun Shed are the Browning agents.

They just brought in the most beautiful rifle. A .308, lever action takedown. Pull a lever, the rifle halves and fits into a back-pack.

I carry my Rossi .357 in this fashion. Undo one screw and it comes apart. In fact I never put the screw back when using. It's quite unneccesary.

I also got my pet gunsmith to make a Russion bolt-action .22 into a take-down.

But you understand that I NEVERA go poaching pigs in the Waitakeres or deer in the Woodhill? :--))

It still happens. Google the HK MP5K.

My old basic Gecado single shot .22 had one large slotted screw holding the barrel and action to the wooden stock - you could use a coin to unscrew it. Took less than a minute to take the thing apart which made it significantly shorter for back-packing. Didn't weigh a lot, either.

I'd love a nice light little take-down that can be easily stowed in a pack to carry as a survival weapon - single shot is all that's necessary.

Got a Gevarm take-down 22 semi-auto, large bolt under the front of the fore-end with a coin-sized slot, half a minute and half a rifle.

And due to a barrel bulge (long story long time ago) I cut down the barrel behind the bulge, now the overall length of it is 765mm so even assembled it's short-as. (Disassembled with the butt unscrewed from the action it makes a bundle only about 250-300mm long)

And I use a moderator on it, (which makes it look 'normal') a very handy/sneaky little rifle.
