Oh the joys of being brought up in a gun orientated culture
I went in, in '88 and was trained on the old Banana as well. The re-trained on the L85 (bag of poo) and eventually the L96A1. Oh and had some fun with a m82 on a couple of occasions as well.... Like you I was shooting at a young age as well.... First on an .22 Air Rifle, then a .22 Rimfire Rifle and finally a shotty.... The joys of having family that owned a farm.
