It's Fun To Shoot "An Easy Approach to Popular Recreation for Both Junior and Senior Organizations" This mid-twentieth century promotional booklet (circa 1940s - 1950) was published to encourage and educate Boy Scout/4H/other youth groups about how to go about setting up a small bore practice range and shooting competitions. Topics covered include how to organize your own shooting club, safe range construction (both indoor and outdoor types), The NRA Ranger Program, as well as basic shooting fundamentals and safety practices. While a bit dated in places (i.e. setting up an indoor ranges without an adequate ventilation system, and no mentions of using proper hearing/eye protection), this would still be a great introduction for groups or novice younger shooters. To anyone who learned to shoot at Boy Scout summer camp it will certainly bring back cherished memories.
