Er....target shooting?
Gotcher! You're in danger of falling into the old trap of selectively,
and subjectively, discriminating against someone else's preferred sport
on the basis of calibre/gun type. Ban 50 cal today and step by step,
we'll all be down to .177 air rifles of less than 12 ft/lb!
Where does any motor sport fit in with society's need for a motorised
transport system? Same argument.
Can we get back to intent please?
If I fancy owning a Lee Enfield .303, it's because I'm interested in
shooting with a bit of history - not because I have plans to form a
small third world army.
