Yes and those people are the ones who write the Gun laws. stupid stupid people

 

More proof that the gene pool needs a healthy dose of clorox.

 

Much as I hate to be the one to bell the cat, this guy is going to be one of the anti-gun people if we don't do something about it. He did an ignorant, stupid thing that could have got somebody killed. Okay, who among us has never done a stupid, ignorant thing that could have killed somebody? I have, and I suspect you have too.

556x45. you have an opportunity here. Go get him, and eddimacate the b********. Teach him. He owes you. He has to listen if you will take the time to dig him out and teach him. And that way he will not screw up and kill somebody else. Now I know that isn't the easiest thing to do, but it is the one that will produce the most result for the least effort.



My heart agrees with cwi555, but we owe it to 'em to eddimacate 'em if they are the eddimacatable variety of dumba**....

 

aint that true they have no idea what the h*ll a gun can do.

 

thats why i dont go to the range,too many novices in close quarters,i much prefer BLM's wide open spaces........

 

If I didnt work there I wouldn"t either. btw growing up in mcgill we had the whole desert to hunt in great place to grow up in sure wish I could go back

 

Some people just werent raised around guns and don't clearly undrstand gun safety. Did your range go over safety precautions with these people. Or just let hem sign the waiver and give them a gun?

 

we go over safety before we let a shooter go out not only do they sign a wavier they are required to read all safety rules of the range. Our wavers are also written by our lawers to make sure they know what they can and cant do on the range.

 

I hope he was promptly escorted off the range and told to never return.

 

I made a note in is account that is is not to use our range. that was after I stopped shaking.

 

OP...

Wow. I hope that guy is banned from the range for life.

 

Glad it missed you at least! :xeye:



Thank God for private land.

 

thank you he got shot some rental mags and the trauma kit.

 

I hope he at least apologized for almost killing you.

 

I had to point that out to him "I'm sorry" you realize you could have killed me. no response.

 

I'm glad you're ok, you should have escorted him out by his throat.

 

Ever heard of the Peter Principle?

The Peter Principle is the principle that "in a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to their level of incompetence".

Peter's Corollary states that "in time, every post tends to be occupied by an employee who is incompetent to carry out their duties" and adds that "work is accomplished by those employees who have not yet reached their level of incompetence".

If you extend it to life in general, it pretty much states that everyone is an idiot at whatever they're doing. If you're not an idiot, you keep biting off more until you can't chew it anymore, and they you are an idiot. The only difference is that you're an idiot functioning at a higher level, looking down at all the lesser idiots... but then again there are always those looking down at you as an idiot. The higher you rise, the more people seem like idiots.

About the guy that almost shot you, I would have beat his a$$ anyways. Stupid should be painful.

 

How did you not punch him in the face?

 

There are two indoor ranges I frequent in Houston, top gun, and marksmans. I have a good repoire with the employees cause I like to talk about guns (imagine that) so ive heard some stories that make me wish some people could be chemically castrated so they NEVER EVER BREED!

Top Gun stopped allowing shotguns altogether because some knuckknob decided to shoot slugs indoors, one of which went through the ******* ceiling. The stalls are also Swiss cheesed with bullet holes. Some to the point where I question structural integrity.

Marksmans uses angled boilerplate to trap and disintegrate bullets. They allow shotguns as long as there's no slugs and no steel shot.

So natually some trouserstain decides to run steel shot through his shotgun a caught three people in the legs with what looked like steel number 7 or 8, including himself.

I just keep thinking that in nature, this waste of space would thankfully have departed his mortal coil already

 

I went today to a place here in C.T. called tactical arms indoor range and they allow rifles i packed some asorted rounds of .223 and was unsure of some wolf rounds i put in a vacume sealed bag so i had the shop keeps hack saw one round rather than fire steel core rounds.Needless to say i see spots on the ceilling here to.

 

just so mad. If I woul;d have confronted him at that point. My police office friend there would have been taking me to jail plus I was more concerned with a young lady that had just been assalted in our parking lot. My lord what a day. Hope today is better

 

Those are the same people that drive on the road with you. The same people who vote. They're part of the reason I don't like the new fad of guns without safeties. They're the same people who buy them. Not that a mechanical device can make a stupid person safe, but every little bit helps.

I've always said "stupid people need to know they're stupid so they can work within their limitations. And not do things like vote, drive, or handle firearms." I've known too many who shouldn't do any of the above.

 

Being from a place where you can go an entire lifetime without ever seeing a privately owned firearm, I learned my range safety at Fort Benning...where you're under threat of getting your **** kicked in and sideways if you mess up. We were informed that the range is one of the few places where the Drill Sergeant WILL touch you. Whether legal or not. Oh yeah and then there was the grenade range...

I can't imagine staying that calm if that ever happened to me .

2 thumbs up to you sir!

 

remind me to stay on my private land.. and never venture to the darkside known as public range.


friend of mine said he saw one of those gan..Sta types shooting a AK sideways.. with no ear or eye protection.. got and eyefull of brass lol at least they can shoot accurately anymore.


a .45 would have messed you up bad .. so lucky.

 

This is one of the reasons why the range master informed those of us that work on the range “You are never to go down range unarmed and you are to have a loaded sidearm on you at all times wile you are on the property.” Since 1963 we have had one ND that resulted in an injury, and that one was caused by a retired Marine. It is not just the untrained that causes problems.

 

Glad you are OK. Hope your luck holds.

 

And this guy actually is not on a "unfortunately I can only eat soup till my denture is finished" diet?

You must have the patience of a saint.

 

Why is it that people are so stupid?

... folks just don't know.

An important thing to teach your kids is that not everyone understands firearms and firearms safety.

If one of your friends does something that makes you wince (or hit the deck) make sure you let them know that you won't tolerate that ... if someone asks to hold your firearm, ask them if they have shot before ... if someone is acting dangerously, get away and stay aware.

 

Tell me didja feel like shootin back?

 

There are some that look like they are juggling when they are setting at a shooting bench.

 

I've been shooting since I was a kid, but recently I took an NRA handgun course at a local sportsman club. When we finally finished the classroom portion and headed down to the indoor range, I was amazed to see a lot of bullet holes in the ceiling tiles!!!!

WTF? How does anyone shoot into the ceiling? Needless to say once I completed the course I had no desire to join their club.

 

sometimes they do it because they think it's funny. Sometimes just Dumb A$$
BTW talked to the bosses. We will train him if he wants us to. They just won't let me. something about being too close to the situation. QWhich ios OK just want a safe shooter.

 

Glad to hear nobody was hurt, but any ass who pulls the trigger on a hot range and is not facing the target and on the firing line needs to have some serious training or be revoked.
