ah memories

...sharpshooter armed with a .50 cal sniper rifle...option of the one-shot kill
one near miss would suffice, kitty would be a furry debris as opposed to pink mist.

As if it's not dangerous enough flying in a whirling mass of spare parts in formation, now theres a possibility of a job where angry, adolescent cats with sniper rifles shoot at us...not happy, Jan.

If our Navy boys aren't allowed to put a nice little 50 cal round through an illegal fishing boat, what chance have the customs whallas got. It is very un PC to shoot the indon mob, apparently

"Customs officers would only be able to fire at feral animals that come onto mainland Australia from illegal fishing vessels, a Customs spokesman said."

The Australian newspaper is abit behind in their story..Like at least 7 years...
they have been doing feral animal culls and disease sampling in northern australia for years in the L4..

This involved the culling and testing of blood samples from Deer, Pigs, goats
and feral cattle in the NPA

To you guys that think they are going to shoot up humans,,GET a grip on it.
This is Australia we are talking about not Angola or somalia or where ever...

It always makes me laugh..when someone posts a post with GUNS an Helicopters in it,,ALL the wannabees come out of the closet... If you want to play with machines and guns go somewhere and do it, just dont talk about it. There are places you can go to do this stuff if you really want too

To the few that have actually had the bullets wizzing through the rotors or more than likely the tail boom/rotor, you have my respect

work beckons
