''Shooting Times and Country Magazine'', more commonly known as the ''Shooting Times'', is a British shooting and firearms magazine, published by IPC Media. The magazine also features articles on hunting, fishing, deer stalking, gamekeeping, gundogs and wildlife. There is also an unrelated magazine simply called ''Shooting Times'' published in the United States by Intermedia Outdoors. ==History== ''Wildfowler's Shooting Times and Kennel News'', the publication's original title, was first published in September 1882 and has not missed a single edition since. Lewis Clement was the first editor. Throughout its history, ''Shooting Times'' has offered a forum for debate in the shooting world—famously in the 26 October 1907 issue, Stanley Duncan, (a long-term contributor to the magazine) wrote in with a request: "Sir, I have been asked to suggest a Wildfowlers's Association, to which you, Mr Editor, might give some assistance by permitting your paper to be the organ through which proposals might be considered and views obtained?" The name of the association born out of the ensuing correspondence was the Wildfowlers' Association of Great Britain and Ireland—now known as the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC) and one of the principal shooting organisations in the country. Over the years ''Shooting Times'' has carried articles by writers and such sportsmen as Denys Watkins-Pitchford (''"BB"''), Colin Willock, Arthur Oglesby, Gough Thomas, and the firearms expert Geoffrey Boothroyd. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shooting Times」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
