Spray and pray with a semi automatic is unfortunately not an Olympic sport.

Americans worship guns, not train how to use them

I got into riflery in high school because I thought the irony of shooting competitively in a school was hilarious.

I didn’t even know that word existed.

Next time have the competition someplace sensible. Like a school. It just wasn't our natural setting.

Are aim is only good when kids are involved.

The target must've been white.

For the air sports I might be able to let it slide, as air rifle/pistol is seen as more of a kids sport, to learn the basics. But their trap performance this morning was disappointing. So far, half of the shooting sports have been done, but the second half is more popular in the US, so there's still time to see the US stretch it's legs in shooting.

Air rifles are a pretty different type of gun.
