Gday all, I am looking fro info on handheld radios and know that there are radio types who visit. What I really need to know is what sort of power would be considered a minimum, ie 1-5W. This would be for variable terrain and scrubby country, gullies, creeks, some small hills. All help is...

Gday, This will sound like a strange question to some but it has a purpose: Will a Remington (or similar) rifle or shotgun pistol grip stock attach to a No4 Enfield? And no I am not going to butcher a nice milsurp in this project-(it is an attempt to get around our dumb laws and build a legal...

Gday, does anyone here know the thinking behind bayonets being blunt? I don't mean to keep them in collector condition, but the military thinking/reason why say a SMLE bayonet would be issued and kept blunt. Is it so troops can't use it as an "everything" tool or is there a sound reason for...

Gday- floating around a few forums is this rather odd photo- does anyone know who sells this stock and how much? Arethere any other Enfield thumbhole stocks out there? Cheers

Gday all, I just picked up my brand new 2nd hand Revolver Carbine. It is about 20 years old and save some pitting in the bore looks to be all good. Ideally I will get to make a test today, though I will be busy with a shotgun RO course. Failing that tommorow is the day. I have some .454 rb...

Gday, We've seen a lot of nice camo and tactical pics on here recently. I was wondering if anyone had done up their shootin' irons with an artistic bent. I took my Weatherby Vanguard with its pretty boring synthetic stock, gave it a coat of "spraystone" and added a bit of cave art. I'm not...

Gday all, I will be picking up a revolver carbine pretty soon and I was wondering if anyone had experience with them? I have shot a fair bit of the Holy Black but only in my flint and caplock rifles, and I have no real pistol experience (Australia). The one I am getting is 2nd hand and the...

I am a big fan of tricky long distance shooting. This morning on the news I heard about what is arguably the best trick shot attempted to date. Later to day a 3m space probe will use Mars' gravity to set it on course for a 3 billion mile journey taking 7 years at the end of which it will land...

Here you go, for those who were asking... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TG6FZZY9ciA

Gday all, this seems to be the best place to get the word out. Australia has a 2nd political party which is pro gun (the other being the Shooters Party). This Party is the Liberal Democratic party and it will be fielding Senate candidates later in the year. Why another party you say? The LDP...

Well David Hicks, among others are still languishing in the Kuban Koncentration Kamp. Finally after 6 odd years of leagal fumbling and sleight of hand he has been charged, apparently these charges are shiny and NIB and the 'crimes" didn't exist when he commited them. It seems that the new...

Gday-I have been hearing a lot about RFID chips lately and their proposed inclusion in a lot of everyday items, supposedly they are already on Proctor and Gamble products and may one day be on dollar bills. I was wondering therefore with all the talk about "smart guns" and the like-How long...

Today's main news story was the news that at the Big Day Out Australia Day concert in NSW the organisers intend to ban and confiscate Aussie flags in light of recent ethnic violence. They describe our National Flag as "gang colours" and deem its display as inflamatory:barf: If the sight of our...

I woke up late last night to go to the bathroom, the dogs were moving around so I thought they wanted to go out as well, not unusual our bladders seem well synchronised. Anyway as I staggered blearinly out of the bed I saw what I thought was a person standing near the front door. As my brain...

Gday all, Today we had some great news, apparently in a dispute over late rent payments an angry tenant shot someone at his real estate agent and then removed himself from the gene pool. (not really meaning to sound frivolous, just my way of talking and this actually happened in the street I...

Gday, some time ago someone posted a "troubleshooting target" somewhere on here. It was a pie chart jobby that gave a rule of thumb guide to what you are doing wrong according to which direction your shot was off target. Clear as mud? if anyone knows what I am talking about could you post it...

Gday, I just recently bought a caplock. I bought it as I have had a lot of frustration with my flinter. The flintlock is Very irregular in its sparking. The final straw was at an Xmas shoot when I was lucky to get 2 shots which went off first time (luckily I killed the sillouette target both...

I often get pitying looks for my 80+yo Remington model 12 at the range, never mind that it is a tack driver with open sights. Well, with the drought in our part of the world the !@#$%^&* rats are moving into houses, driving me and the dogs nuts in the walls. My dogs got 2 earlier when I flushed...

Consider; there have been an average of 160,00 troopsin the Iraq theatre of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000 soldiers. The firearm death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000 for the same period. That...
