Rebecca; I'm assuming no relatives to take you; So,  depending on the size of 
your village/city; you probably have a shooting range, or gun club w/shooting 
range closeby.  People will usually be friendly and helpful to newcomers.  
Cost is ususally practical.

If your area has a decnt size gun shop, they can point you in the right 
direction, plus help you pick out the right hearing protecttion.  If you have 
none of the above in your area, call the NRA, tell them what you need, where 
you are, and they will point you in the right direction.  There 800 # should 
be at their website .....bobford
