In another thread, TMan noted On the flight from New Delhi to London I sat next to an Indian guy who was coming to the states on business. He told me that every time he comes to the states he looks up a shooting range and goes to rent handguns and shoots. A couple times a year a bunch of us from another forum get together and shoot. Last year, a young man from England asked if anybody would help him out if he were to come to our spring shoot. Of course we did. This young man came from England just to shoot our guns. He was most interested in handguns and semiautos, as those are a bit of a challenge to find and shoot legally in England. One of the forum members has a friend with several full autos too. That was a huge hit! It was funny, people were almost standing in line to give him guns to shoot. On another note, what an amazing leap of faith for this guy. He's never met any of us face to face, and he decides to trust a bunch of guys with guns to pick him up at the airport, drive, and board him for a week or so. He's coming back again this year...and may bring a friend or two.

....Our Gun Range is a spitting distance from The Atlanta International Airport, the only thing that separates the two, is the 1-75 Interstate. Many people, from England, goes to our range and rents handguns. I really don't care much for them, or the rental guns. The last time I was shooting next to a bunch of limies , they kept stealing my Shoot N See Targets, from my range bag. The Rental guns don't cleaned enough.

Its the same at our club where the loaner guns never seem to get cleaned at any time. When they break they fix them and put them back into service. We also get visitors on occasion from other clubs and countries as well. Our airport is also just 2 miles or less from our club as well.
