Just what kind of games do you Englishmen play at the range anyway? 😁

While researching guns and optics and specifically digging up info on the Zulus, I stumbled upon a Youtube video shot on what looked to be a pretty nice airgun range. Now even though I’ve done some little bit of world traveling over the last 20 years or so, I’ll admit to being no expert on accents. However, I feel pretty comfortable saying that the creator of this particular video was an Englishman. So I’m watching this fellow cover his experience with the Zulus while demonstrating it, when the camera pans quickly past a very unusual target. Wait, just what the hell was that? A little further in, AND THERE IT IS AGAIN! I’m kind cracking up a little bit as I continue to watch, and the more this guy goes on about the Zulus while COMPLETELY ignoring what has become the elephant in room for me, really gets me chuckling. A thought then hits me, so I grab a frame of the video showing the cheeky target, circle it in red, and show it to my wife Heidi. You see, Heidi lived in London for a few years in the 80s, eventually married an Englishman, and still cares greatly and maintains a connection with her former in-laws. When I show her the picture and say “This is evidently how your former people spend the day at the range.” she just looks at it, raises an eyebrow, and hits me with… “I’m not surprised.” That of course got me laughing again.

Heres the pic:

Look even closer at the pic. Unfortunately I’m surprised that isn’t more of a target you would see here in the USA.
