I have been shooting off and on for longer than I can remember. My first gun was a Webley air pistol, later graduating to a BSA air rifle, then to a Remington .22 cal rimfire. The Remington was followed by a succession of various 22 rifles. I started reading some books on wildfowling and I thought that a side by side shotgun would be fun, so I acquired a Merkel shotgun. I spent many very enjoyable days in the field with that gun.

One day a friend suggested that we try some clay target shooting, what a blast.....(no pun intended). It soon became evident that the side by side was not entirely suited to clay shooting, so it was traded for a used Merkel over & under, it in turn was traded for a new Merkel 201E. My collection increased with the addition of a pair of Brownings, a 32" Citori Trap and a 30" Ultra Sporting. I still shoot clays whenever I get the chance.....usually trap and sporting clays.

I also like to shoot handgun and rifle at paper targets (just for fun), and for several years I have been an NRA certified instructor (basic pistol). I prefer to specialize in one to one (no large groups) instruction. If you live in the westside of Los Angeles and are interested in basic pistol instruction, please e-mail me for details
