AIP-549: The Bored Squad

PROPOSAL NAME:

The Bored Squad

TEAM DESCRIPTION:

The Bored Squad - We will unite legitimate gun clubs from around the world with the aim of promoting the development and collaboration of global legal shooting sports. Our mission is to provide a platform for legal gun clubs in various countries to exchange experiences, share resources, and jointly promote the regulation and education of legal firearm use. We ensure that all ApeCoin holders comply with their respective national firearm regulations and promote a responsible shooting culture, allowing legal firearm enthusiasts to participate in shooting sports in a safe and regulated environment, contributing to the development of shooting sports worldwide.

Advisor - Raymond

Raymond is a seasoned firearm enthusiast with over a decade of hands-on experience in gun handling and safety. Specializing in handguns and rifles, he is passionate about teaching gun safety, mentoring others, and sharing his extensive knowledge. As a private firearm dealer and collector, Raymond keeps his business discreet but thrives on his love for firearms. When he’s not training clients, you’ll find him at indoor shooting ranges, enjoying the comfort and control of the environment. A meticulous and methodical shooter, Raymond values precision and discipline, ensuring both himself and those he mentors uphold the highest standards of safety.

Advisor - Charlie

Charlie got into shooting sports at a young age, inspired by his uncle, who introduced him to the world of trap shooting. Starting at 13, he became skilled with his Browning 725, specializing in precision and quick target acquisition. Although a shoulder injury halted his competitive career, Charlie still enjoys recreational shooting in his free time, guided by the lessons and techniques his uncle taught him. Determined and disciplined, he follows a strict practice routine to stay sharp. His love for the sport continues to grow, fueled by the bond he shares with his mentor and coach, his uncle.
