How often do you shoot guns or go to a firing range?

1. Not very often. I’m super poor.

2. Every couple weeks. Burn through about 500 rounds a month. Sometime more sometimes less. Depends what I’m working on.

3. Eh. Every week or two.

4. This is not an activity I participate in

5. Never. Want to one day though and get some proper training.

6. When ammo was cheap and plentiful, shooting +5000 rounds a summer was no problem. Lately (meaning since about 2020) probably 7-8 times a year. Just enough to pop off a couple hundred rounds and still stay somewhat proficient.

7. 3-4 times a year. We belong to a conservation club. Hiking fishing camping. We walk our dogs on the trails. My uncle bought my son a 22 we go to the range. I don’t enjoy hunting but love the range.

8. As much as I can!

   At least every couple of weeks.

9. Couple times a year

10. I did a few times in Boy Scouts 20 years ago.

    That’s about it.

11. Only 3 or so times. But I’m buying a shotgun soon hoping to shoot this summer and kill me some birds this winter

12. Never. Haven’t shot a gun in a few decades. Not opposed to it, just haven’t done it.

13. As often as I can.

14. 0 times ever

15. I live in the country so fairly routinely for bio security and livestock safety reasons. We used to go to the range quite frequently but since ammo became more expensive, we have stopped and only fire when necessary.

16. Used to shoot every week, but, due to recent prices, not quite as much. Also don’t have a proper range, so there’s another reason. Shooting at the ground isn’t exactly fun.

17. Pre COVID I did like once or twice a month (except summer). I’ve only gone once in the past 2.5 years

18. Pretty often. Don’t need to go to a range…it’s just a 20 minute drive to the desert to go shooting.

19. Never. Probably never will.

20. Since leaving the army, never. I’d be willing to go to a range just to see if I’ve retained any skill, but it’s not a priority for me.

21. I’ve never. The closest thing I done was play call of duty, battlefield, and paintball🤣

22. About twice per year

23. I shot a shotgun once as a teenager. Never been to a shooting range. Never shot a gun since.

24. I go more often when ammo is cheap. Shooting is seriously fun. It’s a great hobby, albeit expensive if you start buying a bunch of different guns.

    Everyone should experience shooting in their lives.

25. Every month at least, ammo ain’t as cheap as it used to be.

26. Before I had kids I averaged once or twice a week. Once they’re a little older I plan on getting them into it and I’ll start shooting again.

27. Made in the USA and never shot a gun in my life.

28. I am a lifelong American. Contrary to popular belief I do not own a gun nor have I ever fired a gun. Not even sure I care to.

29. never

30. Never, and never intend to.

31. Never.

32. Whenever it’s nice and hot and you feel like practicing your shooting.

33. Never even seen a gun in real life that wasn’t being carried by a member of the police or military, let alone fired one.

34. Every weekend.

35. My in-laws have a lot of land and shooting pistols and shotguns (skeet shooting) is a once a month thing about 6 months out of the year.

36. Not often enough

37. Never, mainly because I don’t own a gun

38. Weekly.

39. Every couple weeks. Usually burn through 200-300 rounds per trip. Not worth it to drive 30 minutes each way for less.
