The Dark. A girl can't go wrong with something in basic black, like an AR-15.

Some things never go out of style, like Tom Gresham's Gun Talk.

Oh, we get to have so much fun doing this.

We're at the NRA show in St. Louis, Missouri.

We're in the excess sites booth here.

I get to talk to some very interesting people.

They're, of course, walking by.

We talk to manufacturers. We talk to the NRA folks. And now we get to talk to some very interesting people. They're, of course, walking by, we're talking to manufacturers. We talk to the NRA folks. And now we get to talk to a shooter. Amanda Furr is on the U.S. shooting team, right? Correct. How long have you been shooting competition? I've been shooting since I was 11. And you're like 16 now, right? I'm 21. About 10 years, maybe a little longer. A junior at Ohio State? Yes, sir. Okay. And your event is 50 meter three position? Yes, 22. Shooting 22s. And you said you also shoot air rifle? I do, yeah. My primary event is 22, but I also shoot a rifle.

So describe, for someone who's never seen it, doesn't know what the three position is.

Describe what you do.

Well, it's at 50 meter and outdoor.

We shoot in a prone position, the standing position, and the kneeling position.

We do 20 shots in each position, score 600 points total.

Iron sights.

Yes. A sights. Yes.

Aperture sites. And the bullseye is... It's about the size of a dime at 50 meters, but, you know, we're just pounding them in the center. Yeah. So, I mean, and now, that's the bullseys. And is the X-Ring smaller? I mean, is that... The X-Ring's a little bit smaller than... Yeah, I mean, it's hardly, it's not much bigger than a 22 caliber bullet.

Correct.

Really. And typically when you're shooting, how big will your group be? We try and keep it within size of a fingernail, pinky nail, usually. It's unbelievable. It's what you've got to do to compete internationally. If you can't do that, you go home, right? Exactly. You're out of the game. If you shoot too many nights. Yeah. You said that you don't get invited back. Right. So how do you get on the U.S. shooting team? Well, you got to shoot a lot of national matches. You kind of try out, so. Okay. I mean, you basically have to shoot your way into it. You have to earn your way in. You have to compete it a lot.
