‘DAD GAVE ME A PISTOL AGED 10’

RobeRt NoRdyke’s dreams came true when he opened a gun shop and shooting range in 2015. the 43-year-old, from topeka, kansas, has about 50 guns. He got his first pistol aged ten from his father.

‘I can recall those days we spent in the fields trying to hit tin cans. they were so much fun.’ Now, his range houses a ‘simulation room’, where, thanks to virtual reality, players face extreme situations using real or fake firearms. He teaches customers how to shoot and rules about how to be safe.
