It's nice to see 10 Meter Air Pistol getting some exposure.

I got a nice Baikal target pistol and started shooting in my house every night. The thing was a tack driver and my scores were getting pretty good. I looked aroud for a local competition. No luck!

But there was a .22 winter league. So I got a nice target pistol and got back into shooting. That evolved into Bullseye targets shooting. My range was set up for 50 yards, so of course, a fella needs a .45 acp bullseye gun, right?

I've gotten older, and as my eyesight goes, I find I like this new "Sporting Clays" shotgun thing more than pistols now. Much more fun making up excuses for missing other than "Wow, I am getting old."
