Yep

That’s very true Jack. I don’t mean to portray that it is like this all the time and we always have a .44 strapped to the hip. Apart from crocs, we don’t have any large native animals that are dangerous, like bears or big cats. Out here, Buffalo are about the biggest threat, and more times than...

Mate, I'm a Ranger with the Parks Service in the Northern Territory in Aus and have been since ‘83. I’m lucky enough to be (for the last eight years) in the remotest Ranger Station in the NT. Sometimes it can be a pain in the butt, (like waiting to get stuff in to continue a canoe build) but...

They're great prices you have over there Wannabe. Shame the Govt of this country is so paranoid about firearms. I'd try out the special slugs if I was nearer to a range or club and used it for social type shooting, but I really only use it for work these days. I wear it when I need to go into...

G'Day Wannabe, just as a matter of interest, what sort of price did you get the .44 for? I've had a .44 Mag stainless Redhawk since 1986 and I paid about $800, from memory. (In Aus we pay a lot for firearms, be they long barrel or hand-gun). I had to put Pachmayr grips on it as it was too much...

Ah Jack, that would be 'Ghurkha' mate (from Nepal), not Turk. Mean little buggers well renowned for being deadly with those blades. The Poms were so impressed they promptly incorporated them into the British Army, "Jolly well rather have the vicious bastards with us as against, don't-cha-know"...

Thanks a heap WD, I sent the details a couple of days ago in reply to PM. Did you receive that OK? Let me know if not and I'll try again.

G’Day to all, I have a request to throw out there, actually I have two, so I’ll deal with mine first. I’m looking for a combination rifle to take along, (when this big beast of a canoe I’m building is done and) when I’m ready to do some trips. What I would like is something in the calibres 12g...

Thanks Mike, appreciated. Jack, (I'm just surprised there isn't a holder on it for a beer!) give me time mate and I'll come up with something, perhaps a little outrigger arrangement??? :D

Well, G’Day to all the Southern Paddlers. I’m new to this forum, though I have visited a few times as a guest to check out the great information and ideas on here…which is sorta why I’m here now. I’m building a ‘Canadian’ style canoe and posting the progress on the JEW Watercraft site. Matt...
