I used to shoot on a range in Essex which 'looked' out into the medway. The backstop was non-existant so we'd have to stop for a breather every time a boat sailed by.![]()
What is a Sapper? This versatile genius condenses the whole system of military engineering and all that is useful and practical. He is a man of all work of the Army and the public ready to do anything or go anywhere, in short, he is a Sapper.

Here is a link to a Google Earth picture of the 4 main MOD ranges we use at Barry Buddon. The 2014 Commonwealth Games shooting competition will be held here, approx 15 mins away from me in the car!
