    There was a time when I might have got up in his face. These days I probably would have done the same thing you did. It's not worth getting aggravated over the small stuff.

      I get a lot mellower when guns are around, even if I have the only one. I think the OP did the right thing, and I hope the jerk drops something on his foot.

          You did the right thing. As much as we all want to get right back at the people these days it's not worth it. Too many crazies these days.

            I would have used his target before leaving.

                Yeah, you could have talked to a RM or something and got him booted. But honestly there is no telling what this ******* would do. He coud just wait out in the parking lot for you to finish your birthday shoot.

                happy birthday and congrats on doing the right thing.

                    That's when you bring out your largest rifle and give them recoil headaches.

                          Heck, if his target was in the way of mine, I'd probably just shoot at his! If he didn't like it I'd just say, "If you don't like it, why don't you move your target!"

                            Unbelievable, the things people do out there. Glad you managed to mostly write it off and get on with your birthday. Happy birthday!

                              I would have just shot his target. You would have saved money. If he asked you to stop just reply NOPE! Never argue with an idiot...people might not know the difference.

                                good move. i will always take more crap from people when im carrying then i would when im not. no different at the range. things have at least the potential to get very bad when guns are involved. no sense risking making it your last birthday over some B.S.
