Seems like we ought to have a place to chronicle “the good stuff” observed at the range.
Yesterday morning, my wife and I were sitting in the truck waiting for a bay to open us. At this private range, there is one larger pistol bay that is used for some mixed group stuff, and the remaining bays are single use, meaning it is you and your group’s bay until you are done. We were watching a smaller bay to our right, and saw two guys shooting at the same time, each at their own target. They stopped shooting, each let their handgun dangle in one hand, walked to the targets, inspected them with their guns dangling, and then taped their targets with one hand with their other hand holding their dangling gun. With taping finished, both turned up range, guns in hand, at which point one guy holstered and the other walked back, gun still in hand.
In the bay to the left, two guys were “teaching” a hot blond in yoga pants how to shoot an AR. Couldn’t see anything but a lot of hands on her getting into the right position. Don’t think she ever fired a shot. Saw no problem with this operation.
Late afternoon, we headed back to the range to check zero on one of my wife’s pistols. We were literally the only people there. Old guy cruises past in a Cherokee, and we wave. He turns around, stops and parks at the back of the bay. He gets out of his vehicle, and I ask him if I can help him. He says “I am here to bust some caps.” I said “you mean like with us in this bay?” He says “yes,” at which point I asked him to go use any of the empty bays all around us. Not sure if he liked the looks of our targets we had set up, was lonely, or just clueless.
