Dozens of Chinese business owners in the Triangle say they have felt targeted by thieves for so long that they have turned to firearms, including AR-15 assault-style rifles, to defend their livelihoods and their families. About 100 small-business owners have banned together to form the North Carolina Chinese Hunting Club to train in shooting techniques.
“They're changing their mentality,” said John Wang, a local business owner who translated into English for four other Chinese business owners. "Now, they're going to start shooting back.
Members of the N.C. Chinese Hunting Club studies firearm safety and tactical-shooting techniques like drawing a holstered pistol from the hip into an accurate aim.
The club practices at the Wake County Firearms Education & Training Center. On a recent Sunday, the original 10 club members gathered for a lesson. The eight men and two women wore jeans, Nike sneakers and boat shoes.
The club's members are divided into small groups that meet once a month for instruction by Wei Miao. Members who gathered on a recent Sunday fired off rounds with pennies balanced on the weapons' muzzles, learning to overcome recoil and stay on target even if it's necessary to empty a clip at rapid speed.
