I take no pleasure in being contrary. My civil liberties credentials are as good as most. I'm liberal on some issues, conservative on others, so don't brand me. I have participated in the shooting sports at provincial, national and international levels. I have a modest income as freelancer and will work until I drop. Non-tox is no hardship for me waterfowling nor would it be for upland; my priorities are clear for my sport.
But that's me, what about others? The fact that some members regularly attend shoots and shows over the broad expanses of our countries and shoot more in a week than I would in years evinces the notion that the emotional and financial injury of looming lead bans in hunting and fishing will be accommodated in the same way we've muddled through in the past. Guys who can afford better than steel puzzle me.
