If the Olympics committee are willing to do this to wrestling....how will shooting fair in the future sign85 I have concerns that if shooting was removed then all shooters here in the UK will find themselves in the crosshairs for the Government and anti's

Probably swapping it for Latin American ballroom dancing, or Baton twirling.
Can't have violence now can we no, no, no, no, no someone might get hurt.
Not that the games originally tested war skills wtfwtf

Batons will have to be plastic with dayglo ends :shakeshout:

Plastics a bit hard and rigid, can be dangerous, would be foam rubber surely?

PSG would be an AWESOME Olympic sport, and actually fun for people who aren't particularly into shooting to watch Unfortunately unicorn racing has more chance happening :roll:

The unicorns are all in the vegeburgers...

if we can't have more guns then give us karate..certainly not BMX riding or whatever.

Men's small-bore prone rifle will go, the other events are more international & cater for both male & female. So 3p SBR & air events should survive.

Actually I found BMX a lot more watch-abel than most shooting events & is the Olympics moving toward more TV suitable sports because of coverage & revenues?
