Re: Have any memebers actually bought one? RX Helix

G'Day Fella's,

Sorry dr deer er Col, have I missed something?
I'm looking but not able to see any images, any where above (other than the image under your pseudonym, in the Left Hand column. Edited by Homer)?

Nice to see you have let us know which rifles you own!
Not sure about the M95/M96 though, could you Please Explain?

Sorry dr deer er Col, I don't think I have ever suggested that I am a Gunsmith!
FYI, in 1979 I completed my 4 year indentured apprenticeship, as a Mechanical Fitter and Machinist/General Engineer!
I have been employed working with in my trade, or utilising these skills ever since!
I was employed at a local gun shop (SWW) for almost 4 years specifically to work on, repair and modify both new and used customers firearms and also, this gun shops firearms.
Even during this time, I never described myself as anything, other than a Mech Fitter & Machinist!

So dr deer er Col I hope you will agree, that with over 37 years of continuous mechanical trade experience, I might be reasonably well qualified to pass judgment on some firearm related issues?

For the benefit of those that live outside Australia, there is no formal trade training in this country, for gunsmiths (military armorers yes but not gunsmiths)! The vast majority of gunsmiths in Australia, are either Mech Fitter & Machinists now working on firearms or Gunsmiths that have received formal training, somewhere overseas.

dr deer er Col, I hope that addresses this inquiry?

Doh!
Homer
