        Overview

        Directed by Victor Ashlee and part of Bexley’s Ashlee Family Films collection, this short colour film shows an evening at a local gun club. Well-made and edited – and with music and a narrator – it’s a little dry, with the shooters very stony-faced about their business, but still offers an interesting window on a hobby that has all but died out in contemporary Britain.
