It’s great that someone has set up an organisation for target shooters. I found that the NSRA to be very difficult to get information from. I used to shoot small bore but decided to have a go at air pistol.
In the 1980s I thought about going over to pistol shooting but before I could find the finances the pistol ban came in and target shooter were abandoned by the politicians. I have now started air pistol target shooting. There seems to be nobody promoting target shooting. Perhaps this is why I do not see any British shooters in the ISSF competitions.
Good luck with your organisation. I will watch with interest and pass on the info to my club.
