NEWS – Housekeeping
I’ve just noticed that due to some technical issues, my bandwidth for my picture hosting from Photobucket means that most of my pictures aren’t downloading in the reviews when they’re opened.

NEWS – Discussion Forum: Shooting Australia
Last year, I re-joined the ranks of recreational sporting shooters in Australia after a very long gap between drinks.
To keep myself up to date with the hobby/sport here Down Under, I’ve joined a new discussion forum to cater to the Australian shooting sports. Shooting Australia has only recently opened for business and are attempting to cover every aspect of the shooting sports in this country, and welcome new members.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Social Media Shenanigans
Team,
It’s been brought to my attention that persons unknown have created a Facebook page making statements about an Australian military equipment supplier.
The Australian company in question is Platatac.
I would like to highlight the facts as they stand at this point:
a. I have absolutely no involvement with this page, or it’s organizers to the best of my knowledge.
b. This Facebook page has used some of my photos without permission.
c. I do not agree with how the issues on this Facebook page is raised.
Whilst I have had issues with Platatac and some of their business practices, and even had some negative interactions with their personnel in the past, I do not feel a Facebook page conducted according to this concept is the most conducive method to air grievances. Hence I cannot condone, or agree with this Facebook page.
Thank you for your time and patience.
