The lack of muzzle discipline that those unfamiliar with guns can display is stunning to people who grew up with firearms.

Holy smokes!!!

And he might be banned from there forever. If owned the place I would ban him and his entire family and any unborn children, grandchildren, and so on forever.

Why would you ban this idiot. This episode needs to be used as a teaching moment so that it never happens again. I've had similar done to me at academy with a sales person looking on! No ammo luckily.

Why not? They've already got the video for training classes. Or YouTube so the entire world can see it.

I'd ban him. Yes, it's a teachable moment, but if this range is like any other range, he must have read the rules and signed a document saying he read, understands, and will abide by the rules. One of those rules is muzzle discipline. If someone doesn't have the discipline to do that seriously, then bye bye. I'd expect the same treatment for myself if I screw up like that within a different scenario.

All for a stupid selfie... :headscratch Why would you want that? What do you do with a selfie of you holding a gun to your buddies head? Prove you should be in an institution?

I'll admit I cringed when the RSO went for the gun, hoping it wouldn't cause a flinch pull of the trigger. Glad the buddy lived, to be escorted out!

I thought he was going to shoot himself when he stuck muzzle to his chest, didn’t notice at first he was taking selfies. Moron.
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

Can you call anybody a tard anymore? I'll just leave it at that...
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

I would ban him for sure. He was taking a selfie and then pointed the gun at the other guy's head to do another photo or video. That was not unintentional.

Reviews of Local Range

So happy we can finally give 0 star reviews. This range has the most aggressive and unfriendly RSOs, at least I think that's what he called himself. I dunno. They walk around like they own the place watching everyone like some creepy pervs. Anyway me and my friend rented a 50 cal bmg hand cannon thingy and it was really cool. So, I take my phone out to take some great selfies for my IG, follow me @xXculotontoautofoto1999Xx, and this RSO dude jumps me, breaks my wrist, and dry humps me for no reason. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. Unfriendly staff didn't even give me a refund.
Better to buy your own gun and shoot in your garage. Just as good as a range.
Neither a wise man or a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him.

The worst part is that the expression "they walk among us" just happens to be true. :banghead:
