There used to be an old guy at BBB in So Cal (formerly International Trap & Skeet Range, and then Pachmayr Trap & Skeet) who shot trap for money with a Model 42. He ran a lot of 25s and pocketed a lot of money.

Not all trap shooters are weird. Kim Rhode used to practice at BBB and she was all business, except when she would stop to chat with someone. When I watched her, she was always shooting alone, probably with her Dad as puller, with a small audience standing behind the fence. Best shooter I have ever seen.
