    Australia a rifleman culture, still?

    Meand a mate looked into it a little while ago and they (brens etc) fall completely into the prohibited Weapons category..you could shoot M1 Carbines and the like but nothing full auto.

    Australia a rifleman culture, still?

    What state are you in? You seem to be allowed to have things that we cant in NSW, and visa versa.. for example the :"vickers belt fed machine guns and boys anti tank guns Bren guns and the like" are prohibited weapons in NSW, no justification for owning them. But you are allowed Gen2, Gen 3...

    Australia a rifleman culture, still?

    I am in NSW (different states have different rules) and in summary...Semi-Auto Rifles (rimfire, centre fire, shotgun and pump action shotgun) are banned to the majority of firearm owners. You need to be what is called a Primary Producer (ie working farm), or a professional shooter (paid to cull...

    looking for a handheld hunting gps

    The other one which may be useful is the Garmin Rhino. I was just given one and quite impressed with what it can do.. Its a GPS (With Topo) and also a UHF and if your buddy has one then you can see on your unit where he is in relation to you.

    Headsets

    We found them on ebay. Prices vary from reasonable to ridiculous though. The dual PTT version is more expensive and generally did not come with a headset. But the single PTT version pretty much every time came with a headset (we have bought about 8 of them now) We actually originally bought...

    Headsets

    We use Peltor Comtacs with a few different radios. The combination that works well is using the Comtacs with a dual-PTT PRR H4855 and a Commercial Motorola UHF. The PRR's are very clear and have up to 255 channels, however their range is only 500 meters as they are work in the 2.4Ghz...

    Tactical Concealment Adjustable Hood worth it?

    I am looking to get a TC Cobra Ghilli (Original version) and trying to decide between the Adj. Hood and Non Adjustable. I am not worried about the sleeve upgrade, more interested in the hood design. Wondering if anyone can give me the pro's and cons of having an adjustable hood versus no...

    Target Cameras

    Not meaning to rain on the Hides Vendors as they should be supported, but down here is Aus we have very little options (next to none) when it comes to Target Cameras. They are either impossible to get, don't work that well or are outrageously expensive. Mind you I have not tried the Hides...

    China shows off world largest 3D printed titanium fighter component

    I was thinking the same..im far from being an expert but it looked machined to me and I tend to agree it was 'printed' and then finish machined

    Gunsmithing 338 Lapua Build

    I am in the middle of a 338LM build now and went with a Stiller TAc338 action. I originally wanted a Pierce, but they are not readily available down here while the Stiller is. I know quite a few people who have built their 338's on Rem actions with no troubles and did contemplate going down...

    For anyone wondering about the Timney trigger for the CZ455 VPT (Manner's)

    I have also read that the sear may been stoning to stop bolt drag as Timney make it slightly larger to account for the differences in tolerance of the CZ machining? Anyone know if this is true or not?

    Rimfire Rifle Photos Thread

    Here is mine..pretty plain by comparison to some the 22's here. I also have a Mod 1 BRNO which is a sweet little rifle that I should get pics of one day. Lot of sentimental value in that one as it was the rifle my dad first took me shooting with.

    .338LM Component Help

    I have been doing the same thing. My build so far is a Manners T4 (had it laying around so may as well use it), a Stiller TAC 338 action, Badger DBM and Timney Trigger. Now waiting on the barrel which is a carbon wrapped 20" Madco in 1:10 twist with a fat bastard muzzle brake. Once the barrel...
