It's been an hour, were you spurned? Or did you get to become one of the MCFG's?
I got in 5 minutes later. Went to get stuff out of the car and realized I'd forgotten the membership packet
Went through the safety briefing, ran home and got the paperwork and got back just in time for the meeting to adjourn and hand in the packet. Whew! Now I'm officially a member
Welcome aboard Tom! MCFG is a fun place to shoot most of the time. There are those occasions when there's a cement truck blocking the road that gets frustrating, but fortunately, it's rare when that happens.
My project took me into the evening so not able to attend.
Range Day
Morning folks!
Have fun on the range trip guys. Hopefully, we can get out to MCFG sometime soon Tom. It was interesting going through the safety meeting last night. Some of the rules the gentleman giving the briefing talked about have either changed or are in contradiction with the published rules. Specifically, he said that all the rules of the main line apply to the bays as well. About a year ago, I had one of the volunteer ROs ask me to change how I was shooting in the bays because it was not in line with the main line rules and when I followed up with the range safety director, I was informed that there are different rules for the bays than the line. It was regarding loading guns at the table and then walking forward to shoot when in the bay alone. The safety director stated that it was perfectly fine to do that since the firing line was what you made it to be. The older folks out at the range tend to push for a more static manner of shooting than the rules tend to state I think.
REPORTED!Good to know. I'll definitely be looking at the officially posted rules to ensure I don't have any reason to get reported
REPORTED!
Morning all.
