Post your questions on London 2012 11:48am on 22 Aug 2008 I know that the legasy for shooting is often questioned as it has been decided (against the wishes of just about everyone in the sport) that there will be no perminant legasy in terms of buildings, so my question is: What is the shooting legasy going to be??

The UK doesnt have a world class shooting facitlity but the excuse that we already have one (which we technically dont) has been used as the justification that we dont need another one. I'd love to see the perons who argues that the UK only needed one olympic swimming pool, or one velodrome. the government hates the idea of more people especailly children shooting. so in 5 years how is shooting going to be better off then it is today?
Shooter Du Li set to win China's first gold 11:38am on 08 Aug 2008 P.S. further to my above comments, please bear in mind that the type of rifles used in competiton shooting are very differnet from what most people expect a gun to be:

that is a picture of what i shoot, it's hardly credible as a weapon is it? therefore it's much better to think of them as preciciton sporting equipment (which jsut happens to require a FAC)
Shooter Du Li set to win China's first gold 11:32am on 08 Aug 2008 Shooting is one of the safest sports in the UK (incidentally fishing is one of the most dangerous). The attentions we pay to all aspects of safety both on the range and in our overall attitude to firearms is a key feature of the sport which is depentent on the principles of disipline and respect.

I current shoot at least 3 times a week (and am hoping that I may be competing in London in 2012). Sport is supposed to teach many things to young people but the self disipline to work hard at somthign to see an improvment in your ability must be one of sports greatest bennifits.

i therefore find it extreamly distateful that MISTERFRISKY (and probably a majority of the population) are concerned about this great sport while having a clearly lacking knowlage of it on which to base a sound judgment.

Personally i learnt to shoot at school and I fell that the mroe we encourage young people to shoot the more tolerant society will be (not to mention adding a realistic prospect of a few more medals to our Olympic total!!)
