Welcome to GBO. This is a great place. Pull up a chair and sit a spell.
 
Be careful. Handi's can be addicting.

Welcome northdude!
You have come to the right spot for info on Handi`s!!
What caliber do you have?
 
Good to have another member from " down under"!
 I spent a couple of years in Perth, Australia, and on my way over to Australia we landed in Auckland for a half of a day lay over. I still remember the awesome sight on our approach to New Zealand the green color of the North and South Islands!! That sight will always be embedded in my mind. People were extra nice at the airport in Auckland! Another thing that stood out at the airport in Auckland were the heighth of the " comodes"! You almost had to jump up on them! Ha! This took place in 1972!
