Dead Buff

That could be fun - Rhino could use this for his mini-sniper match

Void if mag inserted here????

Happy birthday, may this year bring you only A's in times approaching zero....

If I remember correctly Vince stated that this will be the way it is implemented in IPSC. Minor: 125.xxxx - yes; 124.xxxx - no Major: 170.xxxx - yes; 169.xxxx - no

The RHT mags are pre-slotted for S_I/SPS frames and unslotted for Para and other if I understand them correctly. They do export a lot to Auz, but I have heard nothing about quality from their mags. There is another company, HK Precision, in RSA that make S_I mags, very good quality and very cheap, but not on the net. Can get e-mail/tel/fax if required.

Oh, you make me so envious.... The FN FAL I wanted to buy....the prick sold it to someone else...for LESS...idiot. So now the project is on hold until I can find another. How's shipping and exporting from the states to the dark continent?

TNX for the info Benos. We have not had feedback from the bank yet and are still trying to sort this out. We have reported the ibillcs.com charges as fraudulent. Their webpage says they will not support a lot of porn sites, but if you google "fraud ibillcs.com" you get more porn hits than when searching for any other term.

After some 'Should I or not" debate...so here goes for 2004... - I hate my job. I'm stagnating and finding something else is close to impossible. I drive about 8000 km every month. - I hate that I don't have enough time for my wife, 1yr old daughter, family and friends. See above - I hate that I don't have enough time or money for shooting. See above. - I hate that my studies are not going as they are supposed to. ... - I hate that I can not grow IPSC any faster in Namibia. - I hate that NAPSA does not generate enough money to survive and that some of the talent here has to suffer due to sub-standard range equipment and zero support. - I hate the new gun laws internationally. We make most of our parts due to all the bans. - I hate that my shooting sux and that I've lost the STD national champ trophy two years running by a small margin. on the other hand... I luv that IPSC is growing in Nam, that the time I have is mostly well spent and that I WILL finish my Masters next year April. The rest only requires more hard work.... I'll take my pills with whiskey now...2005 keeps looking ....the same as 2004....

And the moral of the story: How the hell should I know.... Keep shooting straight ------------- From the above I would start looking at contact surfaces and cleaning/lubricating liquids for the round count to vary so much. Or someone has huge diffs in the manufacturing process.

And now don't you wish they were all yours....drooooolllllllll

Three nearly identical Opens, and two nearly identical Std's and another Open. Do you have many gun probs during matches????? Very nice collection

After reading the above, I checked my and my wife's CC's. This one appeared on my wifes CC: IBL IBILLCS.COM E This CC was used to place an order in the BE-store and no where else before or after and no internet purchase, other than BE, ever on this CC. ibillcs.com seems to be a service provider for internet CC billing. How legit it is for them to take money and charge fees I do not know. Brian, does your store subscribe to their services? Are they allowed to bill your clients?

See the thread under "What I Hate".....

Got 'em in Africa as well. Do they travel?

My bank manager didn't like the idea. He says we can talk about it again when he tells me so....

Some might misunderstand that one....

Apparently the earth picked up a slight wobble from the quake and the islands closest to the quake centre (Sumatra, etc) have moved by up to 20m. The quake changed our maps. Nature keeps reminding us how insignificant we are - we just tend to forget....

Hear is what Vince told me this morning: "There was no effect on Hong Kong, Macau, China, Singapore or to our friends in Indonesia & Malaysia. Sri Lanka and a tourist resort in Thailand took the brunt of the death and destruction."

That is luckily not a decision I have to make... The "Buff" part refers to a for legged animal - but who knows, plastic might do to me what sights do to others around here.... I still have that buff, the "new" one is in for about 6 months now. Both have the horse-shoe indent, one more than the other. I don't know how hard these things are supposed to be, but mine a REAL hard...maybe the African sun and dry weather....

I've replaced my red buff once so far...and it was a case of "Sh 1 t, how long is this thing in here - oh well, lets put in a new one..." That was after about 18-20 months in the gun, so lets say 10k rounds running a 16lb Wolff in a P16-40 with 180pf loads.

A little "diff lock" tip I learned. Just touch the brake while going slow on the gas - instant "diff lock" - sort of. This re-distributes power to all wheels and not just the one/two that are spinning. Gets you out of most situations.

Thats originally from Gary Player, the golf player from South Africa some years ago...

SG, is that a bird in that first pic of your underneath what I assume to be the cat food/drink bowl????? Is it still alive or frozen?????

But only the impression.......

What has Canada got to do with a faulty German product - and don't go knock the Germans now....
