Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

I agree, pretty messed... The good & bad of so many "new" shooters ;)

Worst range day for me happened about 15 years ago when a parent lost track of his 4 y.o. daughter who ended up infront of my bench while picking up "shiny brass".   I caught a glimps of the top of her head below my muzzle as she stood up just before sending a round down range with my M1A.   I called a ceasefire & the guy got booted.   The shot would've have been over her but I'm certain the muzzle blast would've done bad things regardless.  Still shutter a little just thinking about it, I stopped going to Koko Head for a couple years after that.

Anyway...

Stay safe Ren!  :shaka:

wtf.


people who should not own a gun.  just irresponsible.

why would you even bring a 4 year old to the range?  might damage their hearing, even with protection.

Too many idiots buying guns..... the marshals should kick them out and ban them from the range.... BS attitude like that is when bad things happen.... No respect for the safety of firearms....

Were you all the way on the left side of the rifle range this afternoon?  If so, I'm pretty sure I know the group of people you were talking about. I was in that area from around 1 pm until closing. They didn't even pick up most of their casings from their AK.

I was at the silhouette side today.  Only had to wait about 10 minutes for a stall.  Surrounded by shooters who were competent and followed the rules.  Not as many went out to reset targets as should have, but otherwise, it was a good day to get reacquainted with the range.
The difference between theory and reality is that, in theory, there is no difference between theory and reality.

All I remember is that one of the AKs had a bipod.

We're you shooting in the prone area?

Aaaaah, the refreshing sight of competence.

Thats what I heard.

I'da run him off in a heartbeat,had I been the range officer. With the support of all those around  I would like to think. That kind of bull shit and lack of discipline has NO place
at the range.

i don't know why they didn't kick him out for that
someone like that will only get worse, and influence others so that they think they don't have to follow the rules either
