310??? Where??
Been working on this since Sunday - I’ve been wanting to try 3D print some stripper clips for a while now, cause I haven’t been able to find legit metal ones for reasonable prices.
Initial design didn’t really work well though. I printed the walls of the clip at the rim too thick, and it refuses to fit.
I’m going to try print some with thinner walls, but they already seem to snap pretty easily. I’ve gotta be careful about the orientation that I do the layering in cause it really seems to affect the bending resistance.

Had a visit sunday morning at around 11am. from a couple of local police officers to check my storage and the likes . Was a reasonably good visit with no problens at all . But did have to giggle when i opened the first safe and was met with the comment 'jeez i didnt realise that you had that many we might be having a late lunch ’ followed by myself informing the fella 'this is just the first one . You probably should have brought a packed lunch if you’re hungry haha. And proceded to open the others . 2 hours and a lot of laughter later They both left happy . And i was left with one of the biggest games of adult tetris ive played to date putting them all away haha

Had a fun pistol & rifle plink and sighted in a couple of red dots at Wattle Grove Park out at Amamoor, unfortunately it’s about two hours away but it’s a fun range so worth the drive.
Bought some odds & ends and spare parts from Cleavers, and while i was there grabbed a few thousand rounds of purple Syntech in 9mm, i really didn’t need any but it was on sale so i had to get some, rules are rules after all lol.
But really, did you realllllly didn’t need it? Like really really?
Well, it’s like, it was there and it wasn’t mine, so that kinda didn’t sit well with me because i knew deep down it wanted to be mine, so, i did the right thing and helped it out and gave it a home.
It still has some lonely homeless cousins left there that i may have to help out when i go back next week to pick up some stuff on order too. After all it’s not nice to play favourites 
I took @Tempestman for some optics trials (that he wanted to test out and I happened to have) and we’ve went through some 22s. Did a little ballistic science that shall remain a mystery lol And had a quick trip to @sungazer compound. He proceeded to convince me to go for a little walk about I winged a lot and refused to shoot prone because it was cold and wet and I am soft city boy, but we did have a lot of fun. A pretty good week.

Bought a bunch of reloading dies, including 6.5 Arisaka which Lee must have done another limited run on.
First time buying from Western Firearms in Sydney and I couldn’t be happier. Really good service and delivery was very fast.
Finding the Arisaka dies meant that I finally got onto AV Ballistics and ordered 6.5 Arisaka brass. I tried to get onto them a year or so ago and never heard back. Again, really good service this time but their website is crap. They also have Carcano projectiles in the correct size which I got a quote on but at $2.50 each, not worth it.
Continues to get the workshop/reloading room set up.

Hit F5 on the WAPOL licensing progress checker a few times
what ya acquiring?
I don’t want to jinx it!
But it is taking a while compared to my last one. They must have had a massive influx when they announced changes to the law.
