Don’t shoot! It’s a rifle!

 

RifleFrom October onwards you’ll see ’Rifles’ advertised everywhere you go in the P-O! No need to duck unless you’re talking "two little ones"! It’s bingo! In fact, all non profit making associations are allowed to organise 2 rifles a year in order to raise funds for their activities, so it’s all for a good cause.
