    Safety Fail

    Amazing video of what not to do at the range!

    If you bring someone to the range, you are responsible for making sure they follow the rules!

    The kid had better muzzle discipline than the guy in black!

    Whenever I bring a first-timer (or even second-timer) to the range I'm always at their side when they have a gun in hand. Till I am sure he/she has the safety rules down pat.

    The gun owner whether it was the guy in brown or someone else is just as responsible. He gave that guy access to his gun basically unsupervised.

    Well, at least it's a single action revolver...not that it's a good idea to sweep the muzzle over children, regardless, of course...or that the guy holding the gun would have known this...

    But if I have to get flagged with a loaded gun, a single action revolver that has just been fired would be the gun I'd want to get flagged with.

    I would be really pissed! Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that
    a .454 Casull Magnum they were shooting? If so they don't
    get much more powerful than that.

    Could well be...but at least odds of getting shot by it are pretty slim.

    Not that I am defending the poor gun handling...but all things considered, IF you HAVE to be flagged, that's got to be about the least dangerous gun to be flagged with.

    Naturally I'd prefer just to be around people with safe gun handling skills, of course.
