..... your first time at the range. What rule/s you violated?

Oddly enough, None!
But on my second time, I walked right in front of a gun.
On third, wasn't wearing an ear protection.

[bsg]

i have no recollection of which rules i may have broken on my first range visit.

That was some 43 years ago I would say none dad would have been on me like stink on s!!!. I was only 6 or 7.

First time at a real rifle range was back in 1969 compliments of Uncle Sam!

[Steemax]

I'm a darn paranoid person so thankfully I didn't violate any rules... asked someone every time I was going to do something on how to properly do so.

the rifle range on the beach at fort ord in 1967 was my first time at a range. the drill Sargents were SO strict
NO BRASS NO AMMO SARGENT

I am Neo and the rules are the matrix.

The RO was giving me crap about not having a loaded indicator in my 7.5" pistol. I reached over to break down the upper and got yelled at.

No indicator, hassled, tried to fix that, hassled. BLM, here I come!

Why is it the biggest dicks are either gun shop owners or RO's? Is it genetic?

That's one part about gun ownership I don't care for.

Walking down the memory lane ....

I got confronted by an Angeles D-bag because I refused to let him search my bag without my knowledge.

The moron was digging through my bag while I was shooting my AR and when I noticed him after my mag was dry I went into "fight mode" because I thought he was stealing my stuff (I had my brand new Kimber in that same bag). He yelled at me and accused me of shooting steel cased stuff and he held two steel cases of 223 cartridges to my face. I called him an idiot for appearing like he was stealing from a guy holding a loaded rifle. I also added that he was a moron for accusing me when my AR was chambered in 9mm and I was only shooting brass anyway.

Forgot to leave the action open during a cease fire.

[RR.44]

+1 forgot to leave the action open, but only once, I never make the same mistake twice.

Trust me, my first time on a formal range, our platoon DI made sure no range rules were violated.

[BigBamBoo]

I am soooooooo glad the ranges I belong to are self regulated (no RO's). I am a cert. NRA RO, but as long as everyone is being safe, I do not approach or bother anyone.

As for my first range trip.....hmmm.....I was 5-6 and the "range" was up in the woods with my dad and family. Dad had to help me hold up the Winchester 69A (.22) so I am sure I did not mess up on the rules.

Navy boot camp. I don't specifically remember violating any rules, but I'm sure somebody in our company did. There were many push-ups and flutter kicks that day.

First range trip was courtesy Uncle Sam and the Marines and there were NO violations.

Local members range is self regulated (No ROs) and as long as you don't shoot yourself, others or range property you are good to go.
