About Us:

Doug Mitchell:
Born in a family where firearms and air guns were quite prevalent, I started shooting at the age of 5 with my first air gun. I've had the pleasure of owning and/or firing many types of firearms from small bore to Class III. Though my interest in organized competition was focused mainly on IPSC (practical pistol) and sub-machinegun, I've spent a great deal of time with air rifles and HP rifles for recreation. I hope that with Airgun Online, Rick and I can help promote the shooting sports, by increased interest, knowledge, and participation. There is a fine line between air guns and firearms. Air guns offer the best avenue for the beginner to the highest precision for the most advanced. Thank you, and enjoy.

 

 

Rick Williams:
I began competitive shooting in the sixties. I started shooting smallbore rifle, primarily postion, but also prone a little later. I switched to centerfire or HP rifle around 1971 and shot with a US Navy Squad for a while when I was in college. I shot expert in SB and made distinguished in HP. My competitive pistol experience has been limited to postal matches, a couple of IPSC matches and a short period of time when I was competing in the pentathalon. I formally made expert in pistol somehow along the way.

Today I pretty well limit myself to shooting my FWB-80 for pistol and my 2002CA for rifle.
