Not much wind-drift or bullet drop to speak off with no-flinch lasers, but I wonder if really intense mirage could be a problem. Probably just for the shooters – so this will turn into a game of competitive eyesight and the younger “shooters” will win everything.
Someone help me out: Didn’t George S. Patton compete at the 1912 Olympics in Pentathlon? Is not the whole purpose of the Sport to duplicate what a Messenger would have to go through during the Napoleonic Era? Does this mean that the next change to the sport will mean the horses will be replaced by Mountain Bikes to appease PETA, and the Fencing will be replaced …. wait there can’t be Fencing in the Summer Games in London because no one in England is allowed to have long, sharp pointy things! When will the stupid Tories over there start acting like Tories and KILL THE NANNY STATE!

That’s not shooting, that’s video-gaming.
Maybe they will also replace the marathon with Wiifit?

Maybe they should have the targets start shooting back?

Pentathlon: a five sport event that combines fencing, swimming, horse jumping, cross-country running and a round of Nintendo “Duck Hunt”.
