I'll be in Italy from July 2 - August 17. I'll spend most of it in class in Urbino, but then I have like 12 days at the end to travel on my own. Any shooting related places to see? Other suggestions will be appreciated too, but I can look for those in travel books and from teachers at school.
Thanks.
Welcome from Tennesse.. you'll find it a TAD different here when it comes to shooting.
i'd tell you to come around in Liguria and pay a visit to one of the most famous fun shops in Italy, run by G. B. Verrina.
it's an Aladdin's cave with anything you can imagine.
Besides that, you'd pay a visit to one of the most beautiful seashores and fishermen's villages in italy.
If I had the opportunity I would visit the Beretta factory in ~ Val Trompia. 500 years of gun making, has to make for a nice destination.
One of my favorite day dreams is of going there and hand picking an O/U and meeting the craftmen who would build it. KInd of like Mercede's US dealer - European Delivery program.
