Half-blind ex-soldier China grandma, 92, amazes many with high scores at shooting range

By Alice Yan


A 92-year-old grandmother from China who is blind in one eye, turned out to be a crack shot, much to the amazement of onlookers during an overseas trip.


The elderly woman achieved extremely high scores using live ammunition at a shooting range in the central Asian country of Kazakhstan, where she was visiting with her son from eastern China’s Zhejiang province.


The nonagenarian was once a soldier in the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army (CPVA) serving in the Korean war in the early 1950s, the “Xiaoxiang Morning Herald” reported.
