    Our olympic sport...

    Just want to point out to the general public that our pistols are in no way shape or form semi-automatic. They are in fact muzzle loading, take up to two minutes to prepare each shot, and have a range of about five meters. Nothing to see here thanks.

    Who are you trying to kid Olympic shooting is done with Air pistols/Air rifles at 10 metres, Black Powder shooting has never been at the Olympics.
