DJMAlternatives to Shooting and Hunting
Well boys and girls I find myself unable to drive for 8 weeks and not able to shoot for at least 3 months.
I have had c-spine surgery removing the disc between c5 & c6 followed by the removal of some bone and having a cage fitted with 4 screws to join c5 to c6!
So if any of you have any good web sites or internet arcticles good hunting or reloading books or DVDs then please share them.
I have only been out of hospital for a week and already have cabin fever.

Meanwhile, this site is quite fun:

MOA TACTICALAll the Hunters Video movies are great
www.huntersvideo.com From Denmark.
The Blaser videos in English are of great quality but boring. Someone in the UK probably has them in English.
I am enjoying Modern Rifle Adventures seasons 1 and 2 are on DVD now. If your DVD player doesn't like American hunting dvds you can go to ebay and do a search for multi-system DVD player. I bought one for $30 and it cost $20 to ship it to me in Australia. I think they sent it from Dubai. Now I can watch every dvd in the world.
Australian hunting DVDs are kind of crap.
I am a bit of a varmint hunting fan, and there are tons of really good varmint hunting DVDs out there. I can try and come up with a list and send it to you if you like.

Husqvarna M98Perhaps we, I could send you some DVD:s I have a few of typical swedish hunts,
beaver, the kind that lives in the wood, the driven game shot and a few others.
However that sort of means that we/ I do need an adress.

Heym SR20Simple,
1) Buy a copy of Clyde Bakers "Modern Gunsmithing" - or have a look at the Gunsmithing section on theis forum
2) Find an interesting gunstock blank and some carving chisels and a rasp.
3)Get your 22 rimfire CZ and build a proper full sized rifle stock for it. I did this when I was laid up for a while - I used a piece of cherry wood from tree that had been cut down in the garden - did nt cost me anything other than a bit of time.
That'll keep you amused for a while and give you all the gentle exercise that you need. Plus will last you a lifetime.
If you are ham fisted, just go slowly.

Fallow BuckDave,
PM me your address. I'm off to SCI on Tuesday and will post you a bag full of DVD's upon my return.
I've also got a few here you can borrow if you like.

GhubertTake up arguing with randoms on the internet.
May I reccomend the Landover Baptist Church website as a good start.
I'm sadly banned from there at this precise moment of time but if you see Pastor Ezekiel Bathfire on there, tell him he's &*^% from me.

Hope you feel better soon mate.
Best,
Amir

Funniest post of 2012 so far!
To the OP: Read some classics: Dickens, Conrad, Forster, Keats, Buchan etc etc
Or maybe just one, if you start War and Peace now you may just about get through it before you get better!
Right, I'mm of to the Baptist Church Website

Claret_DabblerI don't believe you feckers actually looked that shit up. You are madder than Amir, and that is pretty mad...
Dave, read a few books and take it easy big lad...
Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not out to get you....
30 January 2012, 16:36
Claret_DabblerI am worse, just had a nosey myself.
Dave, don't go there, it would be very bad for your future mental wellbeing...
Amir, how do you find the time?

Well, it's a matter of getting your priorities straight.
I can go to Speaker's corner whnever I want to wind up a fanatical Muslim but unwitting baptists to harrass are as rare as rocking horse poo this side of the pond.
The site itself is a satire but it attracts sincere religious nutjobs in their droves. They can go for variable lengths of time before working out that they've been had.
I'm currently banned following the aftermath of an almighty row engendered by the question "What does The True Baptists Faith have to learn from Fundamentalist Islam about wife-beating?"
They had a proper sense of humour failure, they did...

LOL is a hackneyed phrase ont tinternet these days. However the above did just that to me.
Amir, you're a bad fellow.
BTW 'Chase me ladies I'm in the cavalry' is always good for an offbeat look at life.

calgarychef1Amir you're a funny dude man, too bad you're beyond therapy! Next time I'm bored I'll drop by that website and say hi for you.
31 January 2012, 12:38
DenisBBest couple of laughs I have had in a while Amir.
You are a "bad" man.
as for the mere mention of "Beaver" ..........just the thought of the other kind puts spinal surgery recovery back at least 2 weeks.
31 January 2012, 13:16
calgarychef1No one has mentioned yuvutu.com you can look at videos of the commoners humping each other to oblivion. That should keep you going for at least a few minutes.
There's also youtube and I'd suggest searching under: best knockouts, street fights, police brutality, it's also a good spot to learn the mundane shit you've always wondered about. Definately and I mean this, search under Japanese pranks, those Japs are hilarious.

but nobody could accuse you of being dull...

Beware of the Dark side Dave.
Only you can decide which path you take.

Arild IversenI feel sorry for Dave and hope for a quick recovery, but the rest of it

You guys have weird sense of humor, and Amir is beyond doubt The Grand Master

I´m cutting wood at the moment, just in for a cup of coffee, but this reading made my day

I wish you a speedy recovery and hope that you will be able to pursue shooting and hunting as usual.

Heym SR20I first read it as Landrover Baptist church - so had a quick look expecting lots of geeks in Landrovers arguing about diff locks etc.
No its is full of complete and utter raving God Botherers of all denominations and faiths - we are doomed
But then looking at the rants on other forums about
the merits of 6.5x55
and
243 is too small even for mice
and
clients damaging carcasses as their shot was 3mm onto the shoulder
(tin helmets and sandbags at the ready)
the same could be said about other fanatics!!!!!

Fallow Buckwe did find a beaver thong in vegas which probably would have caused a stir on amirs forum but sadly they didnt have it in daves size.
goats are definately evil.

GhubertPlease tell me you bought one for Ian?!

It still remains an ambition of mine to have a picture taken of me with a trophy beaver, sporting a moustache.
Any man with a picture like that would be cool beyond the dreams of avarice...
06 February 2012, 15:37
Arild IversenThe trophy beaver sporting a moustache ??

06 February 2012, 16:39
GhubertSorry Arlid, I really should proof read my posts before hitting the button.
I meant I'd be sporting the moustache and of course grinning like three big-bottomed dancing girls had suddenly appeared from thin air.
The beaver would be dead, unfortunately.
06 February 2012, 17:07
Arild IversenI knew Amir, I just could not help myself

As you my well know, mentioning beaver here is like putting up a honey jar in front of Winnie the Pooh

I have watched the odd one or two Beaver Films in the past however this was the first one that featured actual

Hey Pal, get well soon.
The 25-06 Rem. did very well for itself this season. Barnes 80 & 100 Gr. TTSX's with case full (to the middle of the neck) of H-4831sc is what mine likes; really well; 5 in 1 hole.
