Hi from Staffordshire
Hello everybody, I've just registered after lurking for a month or so. (Thanks Mike - MiLisCer for prompting me to sign up)
I'm a target shooter with Uttoxeter Rifle club nominated as my primary club, I'm also a member of the FCSA/Offa's Dyke and Stafford Post Office Rifle and Pistol Club (indoor pistol caliber). I got my ticket earlier this year, it took about four months with the Staffs Bill, they were slow but very pleasant at all times. Having got my FAC of course the first thing that I did was rush out and buy lots of firearms ( mistake?).
I am very aware that I have a heck of a lot to learn about the sport, the NRA course is just the start of the journey so I'm always happy to hear advice from others. I'm mainly shooting 25yds at Uttox with trips to Llansylin and Sennybridge every few months. I've also done a PR, I really liked that and would like to do more in the future.
Anyway that's me, other hobbies are flying at Derby airfield (but not current) and also motor sports - I help to run an Alfa 33 in the Alfa Romeo Championship.
Thanks
Charlotte

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!
