      [QUOTE=ianS;1072751]Burbank Firing Line:

      I was pissed. I could have left or moved to the other lanes but I stayed to make sure they stayed safe.

      You don't really thing moving a couple of lanes would make you safer do you. If people are unsafe they are unsafe on the entire range bullets don't go two lanes over and turn.
      I move slow but I make up for it by shooting poorly.

      When I hit the lotto I'm only shooting factory.

        Yes, I'm quite aware of the power and potential range of a speeding bullet. They were potentially a danger to me or anyone else who was in the lanes. That's why I stayed in order to correct their dangerous ways.

        Did you inform the Range Officer? It's their job is to kick out unsafe shooters.
        Yes, I reported them on both occasions. I don't mind being a snitch when it comes to bad and dangerous gun handling.

I might also add that if see a pimply faced kid holding a Moisin saying he jusy bought it a Big5..stay away. Wearing camo, stay away. Anytime I see a group 21 y.o's with pistols I prefer to stay away. Fat, loud, balding dad bragging to his wife and kids...stay away.

            Was shooting trap out at Prado and I watched a half dozen mo-rons tstart shooting a few rounds of trap, loading as many rounds as could pack in their shotguns, sweeping each other with their barrels. One super idiot was using an 870 with an 18" barrel with the magazine full, after each shot he would place the butt of his gun on his hip with the business end of the gun pointed at his buddy's head. Tried to explain to them that what they were doing was dangerous a couple of times, all I got was blank stares.

            My buddy has a Mosin M44 from Big 5 and we usually go to the range after his ROTC so he's usually in his ACU. As for the acne, I think I got that part covered. Ah, and of course we bring our AR's out to play. I guess we fit the physical description, but we are always cautious as we know these are not toys.
