Borris Bans Children from Shooting Events

In the 2012 Olympic ticket giveaway Boris Johnson has banned any of the tickets being given away to children for fear of backlash from the anti-gun lobby.

Personally I thought he had more guts than that. It can only be a good thing to let children see how guns are supposed to be used in a responsible way. How do these people think this rubbish up:

SHOT Business is an industry magazine from the NSSF that is now available online. Their August/September Edition is now available here.

Normal Service

I've not had access to a computer recently so haven't been able to post anything. Normal service should be resumed soon. So whats happened whilst I've been off line:

• The August Issue of Target Shooter is now available on iPhone/iPad.
• The October Edition of Guns magazine is available online now.
• Diggle held its Fly Shoot on the 14th.

New UK F-Class Website

As well as the the new Target Shooter website GB F-Class have launched a new website too.

The new GB F-Class website is also much more professional and user friendly (I can actually access it without all the warnings that the old freewebs site flagged up).

All New Target Shooter

I've been wondering why Target Shooter's August edition was late this month, and here's the reason:

Target Shooter Online

They've launched a brand new website with a new magazine layout too.

I'm not sure about the new mag layout yet but I'm sure it will grow on me. The new website however is definitely much better. Easier to navigate, more information and looks more professional.

Holy Smoke

I saw that a UK company did this as a one off for a gamekeeper a few years ago but now a company in the USA is offering it as a service.
