I'm sure everyone knows not to do these but after last night I need to vent...
First, if we yell FINGER!!! it means your finger is in the trigger guard or close to it when it shouldn't be - please straighten your index finger and rest it on the FRAME of your gun. On the trigger guard isn't any faster and it too close to the trigger for my comfort.
Second, please don't point your muzzle in any direction that may be construed as 'up range'. You're likely to (at a minimum) flag the SO and scorekeeper with your muzzle and we really don't like that. We'll yell MUZZLE as you get close to breaking the muzzle safe points but if you fail to correct yourself, expect a DQ for this. Go home think about what you did and come back next week.
Third, when you get done and need to remove your gear, even if you're in the safe area you STILL MUST LOOK DOWNRANGE and verify that nobody is downrange. :banghead: Not sure what to do with that one other than yelling at the individual but the range is contemplating banning any further violators permanently from the premises...
It was a rough night last night to be an SO and scorekeeper...
