yeah ive got a model25... i dont have any particularly great dislikes about it...
i would like to buy another magazine for it though, when the foxes and roos are about, 4+1 just isnt always enough.
anyone know where i might find one? seem to be rare as hensteeth

Re: here puss puss
its a fenix tk12, has a CREE Q5 LED and runs on 2x CR123a lithium batteries... that was the first time id tried it out and i quite liked it... made a huge difference for me because i could hop off the ute and take the 130m walk into the scrub to find the prize with ease... its like carrying a spotli...

Re: Car key security
yeah.. we have to be licenced to shoot spit balls in this country.. its a massive drama for even the lowest of low powered rifles. but not surprisingly, the crooks still seem to have their guns while all the honest citizens were stripped of their semi autos, etc. to be honest, i havent managed to tr...

Re: New Savage 12LRPV in .204 Ruger
whattya talking about?! i think the model12 is absolutely beautiful!
if it werent for the small fortune it costs here in aus i wouldve had one, so i settled for a 25 instead.
whats this 'savage break in method' ?
mine didnt come with any special instructions for breaking in
