I Know How to Shoot a Gun
It's hardly a massive hobby in the UK (no, dearest Atlantic cousins, not because we're oppressed), though the shooting business is apparently worth around 拢2bn a year.
I doubt every single farmer or large landowner in the country has firearms, but many do, including my parents - so to an extent I've grown up around guns, principally air rifles (because within some limitations you don't need a license for them and minors can shoot with them), and shotguns. I doubt I'll ever win any Olympic medals, but I'm a sufficiently good shot to defend myself very well from hordes of rampaging clay pigeons!
