vanner from the usa

welcome Vanticipation, what kind of van are you running and do you have any pic's to show us

just wanted to say hi from washington state,usa. I am also on vannin.com,lots of good people on that site. my van is a 77 3/4 ton chevy full size 4*4,the name is vanticipation lives. I recently picked it up after selling my other van(crystal ghost),this van is in need of alot of work,I have had the motor,tranny,front and rear end redone,I just put in new seats.but I still have alot of body work and interior that needs work glad to see that all you people down under love vans of all kinds. here is a picture of me from my last hunting trip take care and van on....

I hope you didn't hit it with your van, are they many 83 G3500 5.7L still around?

there are still a few. pretty cool web-site you guy's got

I wouldn't mind bring one over, and doing it properly, as my A-Team van is done from a Bedford, but I'm hunting a front end, if you happen to spot one on your hunting trips

i will keep my eye's open for you.

cheers for that, let me know if theres anything at all, you need over in Australia

Welcome aboard and boy am i jealous wow what a stag i wish i could could bag a stag that big over here
Regards from
Rapman

you can if you use a bazooka like he did

Dont need a bazooka as i wasn't in the SAS so i'm a crack shot

I was the equipment man, yes I carried a 9mm strapped to my hip, and a styer on my back, but I only shot a t the range ( Thank god ), but the sniper's and people I knew could shot a round up a flea's arse at 1000 metres, that's why you stay on thier good side

So your SAS boys were deadly when shooting fleas

yep, they use to strap a can of Raid to their grenade launchers, just in case they came across any, then they would run 1000 meters away, turn and fire a round up it's backside

geez I can't wait to meet you

Ditto

sounds like we'll be laughing the whole time I'm down there

and havin a ball of fun

well I suppose I could spare one of my balls, in the name of fun

you guy's are hilarious,I wish I could get down there and have a beer with all you. usually I bow hunt but I paid for a guided trip and wanted to make sure I didn't miss. rifle was a 300 remington ultra-mag with 180 grain rounds. in the open at 250yards I don't think I could have ninja'd my way close enough to get a shot with a bow. I had back surgery planned for 2 weeks after the hunt so getting around was kind of hard,I sat on my butt for 4 day's before this elk came out where I could get a shot. beside all the cool rides you guy's have I hear there is good hunting down there.

I hear a pee shooter dart gun at 10 paces is just as effective, the problem I have, is being dressed up as a female elk, and after sex I get him while he's having a cigarette, I'm pretty sore though, but it passes after a couple of days

the last time I went on a guided hunt, it was with a jilted female elk, who was pi##ed off with her husband, I eventually got him, in a singles bar, he was drunk and all I had was milk, it wasn't pretty but lets say she has the meadow now

We are all about havin fun except when i'm hunting . I use a 308 or a 270 as most of the shooting down here is in the bush and some in the open and we do a lot of walkin and stalkin and sometimes we get wat we came for and sometimes we just tired
So your back will hav to be all mended if you want to hunt with the real men and if not you can do the tourist shoot from the comfort of a helicopterr or 4wd in a fully fenced safari farm where the deer can't get away

you could go hunting in the officers mess on base, they can't get away either, and you'd probably end up with a medal

if I just hunt from my van the beer's are close by in the cooler,plus I might get tired and need a rest. helicoptor hunting,holy crap,you would think people would get in trouble for shooting helicoptors do they taste good.
