Community Building Comp?

[u/Dill_Pickle_Tears]

Wanted to start a leaderboard or some kind of friendly competition that also benefits our community!

The idea: some kind of pinned megathread or leaderboard for how many new shooters we’ve brought into the sport. Any ideas are welcome too!

I got the idea recently as I’ve been thinking about how my personal shooting community has grown significantly.

In my personal circle I’ve managed to get 5 people into shooting in under a year. Either they’ve begun the process to acquire their PAL and RPALs or they’ve already bought their first firearm.

Would be cool to see how high we could pump those numbers up. It benefit small business in the sport shooting and hunting communities, as well as our safety course instructors.

Biggest bonus is that the more licenses and lawful firearms owners per capita we’ve got, the harder it is for government to continue pushing current gun control misinformation onto the public. Our voice grows and we gain more advocacy in the media, etc.

IMO, much of what we’ve suffered through politically was made possible because of the public’s lackadaisical response to the LPC’s post-2019 gun control and public safety agendas. Hard to make waves when nobody knows or cares about what’s going on, so every new shooter we get is another educated person who can spread the word and to serve as a constituent an MP needs to consider for reelection.

1st place goes to EA games. 2nd place goes to Airsoft stores. And 3rd place embarrassingly goes to Donald Trump for somehow convincing Liberal Boomers that its 1812 once again.
