Welcome from the Texas Panhandle.
Hi all forum members from Western Australia
Well as said hi from sunny WA.
I’ve been an avid shooter from a young age, back when firearms were prevalent here in Oz. After leaving home and during my $broke$ 20’s, growing up 5 kids into my 30’s I hadn’t touched a gun in years. So when finally I’d saved enough at 35 years of age to buy my very own rifle, handling the cold steel and timber, smelling the sweet gun oil was indescribable. A proper man’s long arm of my very own, a brand new 336 Marlin in 30-30. Now 17 years later I’ve a few more in the safe, reloading for the center fires; well it gets me 1/2 MOA with the faster ones but also a a kinship that I just don’t feel with any other of my possessions

Actually thinkin' about moving there Washington state or Oregon since our govt has turned on us. However thats for another thread
Not those two. You will find yourself back where you are. Go to Florida, Texas, Oklahoma someplace predominantly red. It's all one big party, but the people in the populace who comprise them are the ones you want to be among. Maybe better if you distribute those rifles and make a stand at home. What has happened to y'all is the plan for all of us. I'm still hopeful that there are good forces deep in the US government with a plan to right the ship, but It's likely that you can't run from it. A stand against it wherever you are may become necessary.Actually thinkin' about moving there Washington state or Oregon since our govt has turned on us. However thats for another thread
Yes Ranger we can be a determined and hard headed bunch us Aussies. In 2020 February the misz and I did the Everest base camp 13 days hiking in the Himalayas. Days varied from -5°C to 10°C and nights down to -15°C, so in camp I wore long johns and fleece. However I’m a hot hiker and consequently did the whole trekking task daily in shorts to the delight of the locals “why you use half trouser?”, and a couple of Americans I encountered “wow these Aussies are a tough bunch”
