I've been attending the local club and find the whole licensing thing to be extremely disorganised, turn up sit on your bum for a few hours hoping to be able to shoot, very little communication or organisation for a new member to get started, if you're lucky someone will take pity on you and offer to loan you their gun even then I can't buy ammo to pay them back the ammo I use, members are too polite to take cash to reimburse them for their ammo, which I find embarrassing.
I'm felling like I should just hang back do all the necessary stuff to obtain my license and buy my own gear, I will not then be dependent on the charity of others.
There just doesn't seem to be any structure to the process, all very frustrating and I'm sure it must put many people off the sport. I'm happy to wait but I feel like I'm lost without a map to guide me.
