I'm shooting at the indoor range with all lanes occupied. The guy next to me, who looked ex-military, is shooting rapid fire with his pistol. This doesn't bother me until I realize that he can't control the gun under recoil. It must have been a .45acp. He keeps hitting the steel target holder and I hear ricochets. He was also using some crappy Russian steel bullets (which aren't allowed at this range), as I could see sparks on the backstop every time he shot.
What really bothered me were the ricochets. I was hit in the leg, chest, hat, stomach, as well as hitting the barriers in my lane. I was scared of getting hit with a stronger ricochet and being severely injured. I was going to say something to the guy, but thought better of it and left early. The guy was nice enough, even complimenting my shooting. I just wished he realized that he was not skilled enough to be shooting so fast.
