Hi everyone, I have a question for all of you great shooters out there in New England. How would one that is 18 years old with no family involved in firearms get into the sport? I have been interested in firearms all my life. Being fascinated by how they work and what makes them work and the history behind it all. But instead of telling my friends and such about how much I know about firearms, I also want experience and to compete in the amazing sport. But having no sponsor or parent or anyone in fact, that is involved with recreational or competitive shooting....well I find it kind of hard to start into the sport. Seeing kids younger than I am on youtube being able to shoot in rifle or pistol competitions already make me envious. I am alone on trying to get into this sport and hobby and living in MA isn't really a huge plus either. That is why I seek the knowledge of you experienced shooters out there that can help guide my way into the sport and hobby because I have been on my own on trying to join this community and sport. Please help me and thank you very much.
