I'm 28 and have been shooting since age 10. First gun was a crossman air rifle. I was then in boy scouts and participated in all the small bore I could get my hands on. I didn't shoot much in college (too damn poor) but after graduating rediscovered this hobby and have been plinking and target shooting since.
Now I shoot and collect everything from revolvers, AR's, M1A's, FALs, 1911's, 10/22's, MarkII's, Model 41's, to .50bmg I plan on participating in my first IDPA style match on Monday. I hope to participate in my first "Appleseed Shoot" in March. Strangely enough I've never been hunting (but I've been begging some coworkers to take me). This is really the only hobby my father and I share.
