All I know is that if I hear something drop, I am gonna jump in the air...then again, it will be all over if I hear anything anyway.

 

Holy crap, I just read the article in today's APP. So much for making your firearm "safe" when you leave it on the bench? I totally missed this somehow. What kind of "High Power" rifle was it anyway?

Is it just me or does there seem to be a need for more range presence from the BA staff. It's getting to the point where I'll only go on NJGF meetups there. I have been there many times when no one is checking on safe procedures.

 

I Agree. Shore Shot always has a range officer watching, but they need it more as they tend to get a lot of the local riffraff coming in to rent a Glock and shoot holding it sideways. I haven't seen those kind of knuckleheads at BA. That said, it doesn't take a gangsta or wannabe to handle a firearm in an unsafe manner.

Wow. They seem to be having more than their share of foul luck lately. I've never been there, so I don't know what their system is, but it may be time for a bit more oversight or a review of the range procedures.

there was an RSO there, much like there was one when the suicide happened. wouldnt of changed anything.

 

I whole heartedly disagree Maks. I'm not saying it wouldn't of happen but I've been at bullethole and seen people rest a gun in an unsafe manner and that guy there is ALWAYS right on top of the person. He will not let you leave a gun unattended if it's resting on the bench especially a rifle none the less.

 

I've been to BA twice now and doubt I will ever go back. Both times I've gone there the RSO's have done NOTHING. The first time I went there the guy was wearing his ipod and just shuffling around every once in a while he would sweep some brass but never once looked at people. Second time I went there, there wasn't even an RSO in the freaking room. 10 minutes into shooting someone finally walked in to start looking around and then he disappeared again.

I agree. I go there every other week or so and barely ever see an RSO. In an hour and a half visit one may pop in for a few minutes but very rarely are they actively engaging in anything other than sweeping brass. I've seen people load at the bench, turn around with a live round in the chamber and so on. Definitely needs more of a staff presence back there...

the gun was not left unattended. it literally was something that occurred within a few seconds. the guy was there with the gun when it dropped.

 

trust me, no RSO, or 50 of them could of stop it.

 

the guy was stupid and thought he could balance a rifle on the front rest.

 

 

btw, totally agree with you on ipod guy, and he is no longer there. On tuesday, there was one there the whole time. If you feel unsafe, come shoot with the forum, we are usually the only ones there.

I agree. That guy on Tuesday was on top of everything (but without being in everyone's way). He was good.

The RSO's at BH enforce the rules very well :-/ I have been yelled at for rapid fire, and moving a shotgun not in it's case before (awkward because of the small space). I belong to a private range now, but I can see how they need to stay on top of everyone in such a crowded area, plus with all the local rif-raf that comes through the door.

While this does sounds like an unavoidable accident, and it happened in the shooting port.

 

However, I do believe allowing people to uncase their arms at the rear table and then walk around with them uncased while out of the shooting port is a recipe for disaster. Admittedly, the forum shooters are some of safest shooters around, but guilty of this all the time. I know at SS and many other indoor ranges, if you step out of the port with an uncased gun, you are asked to pack up and leave!

OK... Admittedly I haven't been to a meet up in a while so I am glad to hear that the RSO presence is getting better. I have only been shooting for a little over a year and as a noob I think it would be helpful for some signage or written rules/ common sense guidelines to be posted very conspicuously along the rear benches.

 

And I already stated that I may only go during NJGF meet ups to feel safer. We usually dominate the lanes. And feel free to correct me anytime you see something that I am doing is not right.

      The Tax Man Commeth

      By leahcim · Posted

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      By maintenanceguy · Posted

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
