- Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put "CW: hunting" in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don't derail other people's threads.

Not sure yet, I mostly want to learn how to shoot. But I would like to learn home / self defense, also for fun because i like guns, and also maybe hunting to. As for what ill be shooting, probably bolt action or leaver action rifles like a Lee en field, because being in Australia, they are very common and also getting hold of a pistol is near impossible and means a very big hassle, with all the laws around it. As much as i would like a pistol, a bolt action rifle is probably the best way at the moment.
Also just a side note its amazing that there is a leftist / non conservative space to talk about guns.
