Nick Doherty and his wife Laura Saunsbury live in France so they can carry on shooting. Nick shows Charlie around his local range and the guns he shoots. Nick and Laura welcome shooters to their gite near the city of Albi in south-west France who want to shoot guns that are restricted in the UK.
For more about accommodation at the gite, go to / lametairie.neuve and for enquiries about shooting email Nick at enquiries@albioninvestments.com

Why go target shooting?
The British are great shots. GB's medals records at the Olympics and other international events show how important target-shooting is as a participation sport.
Target shooting involves the use of air rifles, pistols, muzzle-loading rifles and pistols, and cartridge rifles (both rimfire and centrefire). Clay shooting, practical shotgun and practical rifle are also important branches of the target shooting disciplines. All require concentration, self-discipline and great self-control. Being relaxed and focused is key for hitting the bullseye.
Its heritage goes back centuries. Founded in 1859, the British NRA is a registered charity with a Royal Charter, and National Governing Body of full bore rifle and pistol shooting in the UK. Based at the world famous Bisley range complex since 1890, the NRA promotes and encourages marksmanship through competition and training.
For medal hunters, British Shooting is the only target shooting governing body in Great Britain recognised by the ISSF, WSPS, British Olympic Association, British Paralympic Association, UK Sport & Sport England.
