Absurd sh!t you hear at a public range

This thread makes me appreciate even more having the good fortune to be able to shoot at work by myself.

Not stupid stuff. When I shot at Bandera Gun Club - Tim Reedy of TDR Training gave a great intro before the matches to emergency procedure as to injures and how to call it in. For example, not saying there's been a shooting at ... This leads to a nasty law turnout.

Anyway, the club I shoot at now, didn't do such and I brought it up at a meeting. Now they do. A positive note.

"There's been a training accident at XYZ Gun Club"

Just to spell it out.

The issue with telling 911 there has been a shooting vs a “training accident” is not a “nasty law response” but rather that EMS /Fire doesn’t normally respond to hostile / unsecured crime scenes for their own safety. For a “shooting” EMS/fire will stage nearby until law enforcement responds and declares the science “secure.” All of which results in an unnecessary delay in providing medical treatment in the case of an accidental shooting.
