What Started You Shooting.

Had to join at least one after school club in 2nd year; looked down the list and picked the one that involved the least sweat or mental agility (no chance of Chess club or debating for me!).

First time I shot on the schools .22 range, instant addiction.

Only problem was you had to wait for the 3rd year before being set free with the 7.62 rifles!

Joined the army when i was 15 as a boy soldier back in 71 and never looked back,left in 98 had a small break
but i just missed shooting so much so i've joined the Tamar rangers and now awaiting to get my FAC eventually
God i hate old age!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting you say this, i have in the last 2-3 months spoken to 2 work colleagues in Plymouth who want to get back into shooting after learning of my hobby. Its good to see the appeal it has doesnt wane and that it draws older shooters back :)
