For
security reasons, many shooting clubs prefer not to advertise
or divulge telephone numbers in such a public forum as this,
and subsequently the list is by no means exhaustive, but if
you are interested in joining a club or association, contact
one of the following, and they can provide you with details
of your nearest club.
NOTE:
Carrying of firearms is illegal in the United Kingdom, except
under special circumstances and under strictest licencing.
