taking some newbies shooting, need input

Maybe load one round only for the first time shooters, on their initial shot. Some people get overly excited and turn around with the gun out of nowhere.

If there's failure to fire tell them to keep the gun pointed down range, not to wave it around a look down the barrel.

I was asked by my church Campus leader to have range day at Burro Canyon.

There will two to three experienced shooters with me. I have a 20ga & a 12ga semi, a 12ga pump, an AR-15, and a Hi Point 4595.

Do you think that we should get a private range or use the open range?

I am also doing a safety class before we go.

Here are some points that I plan to cover

1) Assume a firearm is loaded and handle it appropriately
2) When if doubt, assume a firearm is loaded
3) Always point the muzzle down range
4) Keep your finger off of the trigger until you are ready to shoot
5) Safety and how it works for each firearm
6) Never hand a person a loaded firearm unless you inform them that it's loaded
7) Always listen to the range officer
8) Never have 20ga ammo near the 12ga ammo.

anything else that I need to cover?

Thanks for the input

Always know what your target is and what is behind it.Never point a gun at something you don't want to shoot.Even if someone tells you a gun is unloaded check it out yourself.
