My First 3 Gun Competition
AShooting Journal ^ | 6/28/2016 | Emily Robinson

I have always been a pistol shooter. Even the first time I was out on the range, I loved everything about shooting, from the smell of the gunpowder to the sound the steel makes when it is hit by a bullet. I think that’s what got me hooked on competitive shooting. I was 9 years old when I attended and watched my first Glock Sport Shooting Foundation (GSSF) match in Columbia, S.C., and my whole family attended to see what it was all about.

MY FIRST USPSA MATCH was the North Carolina Sectional in 2012. I had never even been to a USPSA match, nor had I ever practiced for anything like it. It was all new, and I was even a little intimidated. It was so much fun watching everyone on my squad shoot during their round, but when it was my time to shoot, I felt like a deer in the headlights.

Wow, impressive. Her very first three gun ever, and she already has a sponsor!

I'm getting kinda long in the tooth and am getting rid of most of my guns and knives. Keeping one shotgun, one .22 rifle, and one revolver:
North American Arms Mini-Master .22LR/.22WMR .

Giving my knives to my grandchildren, boy and girls.

A girl gets this one.
