Hi All, First post to start off my blog

Hello Everyone.

First post~

Purpose of this blog is to document my Shooting progress. If anyone even reads this, feel free to give comments. This blog is also to document my progress. and hopefully be informative for some new shooters who is also interested in this hobby.

Before I start I'll like to say: A firearm IS and always will be a dangerous object. Just like a car, if your drive very carefully, you and the people around you is safe. If you drive recklessly, you may injure yourself and also innocent pedestrians. Like a knife wont decide to stab you out of the blue when u get close to it. A gun will not fire if your finger is not on the trigger. So, please, Safety first. If not sure. Don't shoot.

As many may knows, Australia is a very 'Gun Paranoia' country (atleast the way I see it.), however, despite that one can still Legally own, carry and shoot a real handgun, if you have a 'genuine reason' to do so. (BTW home protection/self defense is NOT a genuine reason to own a gun. which personally I think is good thing.). Thankfully, Sports Shooting is a genuine reason. Halleluiah~!

Since Mar 2014, I have started This Sports Shooting Hobby. I wanted to take it slow, and work on the techniques. Make it as a weekly thinggy. All good skills and mastery takes time. So I am currenty just taking it slow. Learn and practice, learn and practice.

Before you put up your hand "YES YES, I WANT TO SHOOT TOO!!" here is some self-checking points for you to see if Shooting is really the right hobby for you or not:


1) It takes abloody long time to get your license. (Long waiting time is part of the package, this is good to see who is serious and committed to this hobby and who is not.)
2) It cost bloody lots of money before you even get your foot in the door. (I haven't got my probational license yet, and already spent $900.)
3) Its not a Teddybear building sport, guns are essentially weapons. and there is always a risk of getting injured (getting shot) if careless, or being injured by other's careless shooters standing beside you. 

Think of it as a long term commitment. If your answer is still yes, then welcome aboard.
