Competitions/matches Recently started my journey on becoming an "Olympic" sports shooter.

Recently started attending bullseye/sport pistol practices at the gun club. I also plan to compete in sanctioned SFC matches as well. This is the gun that I've chosen to borrow from the club in the meantime. It's a Ruger Mark II Target. The gun belongs to the club but I will stick to using this exact model every time so I can build familiarity with it.

Hopefully by the end of the year I will have accumulated enough practice sessions and matches to get an exemption letter so I can buy my own "Olympic" style handgun.

I know the state of firearm laws in Canada are trash at the moment but I will continue to enjoy the sport/hobby any way I can.
