I lived in the states for 12 years and had a gun license in Kansas,
or at least did the gun training, it was some years ago now. I don't
have any great affinity for guns, but did enjoy the buzz off shooting
them on occasions, but didn't feal any need for them especially here in
the UK although my dad did when in the US.

I used to take 3-4 firearms down to a nearby river and plink. There was
also an uncontrolled range out of town a ways, backstops out to 200
yards. And of course have shot at controlled ranges. But the expense,
tight controls, and limited opportunities were a turnoff.

Those part of my collection was for self defense back there, no need
here. Plenty of cricket bats around the house...
And this is a town were many still leave homes unlocked during the day
while at work.

Today I prefer to do my shooting with my cameras, especially the old and
abandoned farm houses scattered throughout the countryside.
