thanks for the replys i realy dont need a brushcutter but i cant stand the bent pipe flex drive hence the brushcutter
so i gather the 25 will do for the knee high grass and weeds

Yeah, I'm very happy with my 25 for both the well kept part of the lawn and also the mess down the back as mentioned before.

A good nylon line and it will take on all green stuff and the blade sorts the woody bracken.

However if I was buying from scratch I'd get a good Stihl kombi system setup rather than the Honda then later buying a cheaper Husky system.

Great racing at present - really like the last laps, and the top 10 shoot out.

A FWIW re the Honda brush cheers.

They respond really well to a muff mod and if you make sure the carby is getting absolutely full throttle!

Just remove the spark arrester and you'll get a heap more revs out of one :)

I also use Motul 300V 10w-30 to maximize grunt/minimise parasitic losses.

Maybe a little OTT.......

New firearms offences planned in SA crackdown on gun crime

Updated 1 hour 8 minutes ago

The South Australian Government said it would take more steps to crack down on gun crime.

Premier Jay Weatherill said new offences would be created and police given wide-ranging additional powers.

Under planned changes to the Firearms Act, the trafficking of firearms will become an offence, with a maximum prison sentence of 20 years.

People unlawfully in possession of a loaded firearm could face a fine of $75,000 or 15 years in jail.

Mr Weatherill said police would be given greater search powers and the authority to seize equipment used for manufacturing and altering firearms parts.

"These proposed reforms build on tough new laws we introduced in March this year and send a very clear message that the trafficking, supply, unlawful possession and use of illegal firearms will not be tolerated," he said.

Police Assistant Commissioner Linda Williams said more support for police efforts would be welcome.

"We believe these amendments to the Firearms Act will improve public safety," she said.

"This legislation will be focused squarely on illegal weapons and the criminals who use them."



Planned changes to Firearms Act

Planned to make it an offence to possess a detachable magazine with a capacity of more than 10 rounds, with a maximum penalty of a $10,000 fine or two years in jail.
Would become an offence to be in possession of a silencer, mechanism or fitting found together with a firearm, with a maximum penalty of a $75,000 fine or 15 years in jail.
It would become an offence to reactivate, or attempt to reactivate, a deactivated firearm, or to make alterations to a firearm which changes its legal classification.
