On my only trip to Atterbury the RO's did seem to be a little testy! Of course the one guy that WOULD NOT step behind the line during the cold period, the other guy who kept POINTING THE BARREL OF HIS PISTOL down the line of shooters while impressing his girlfriend, the other guy that WOULDN'T PUT DOWN HIS RIFLE AT THE END OF THE SESSION. Get the point? They have to deal with a mix of probably 80% responsible gunowners and 20% wannabe gangbangers who miraculously somehow know how to pull a trigger that the rules don't apply to. Personally I think they should take away the loudspeaker and put up a stoplight system, when Green they range is open for shooting, when yellow, the range is about to go cold, when red if you're doing something stupid the RO's can "enlighten"you with a load of rock salt!!!
I was raised and trained that everyone on the range is a safety and if someone is being unsafe or just plain stupid its any and everyones job to set them straight, politely mind you. I've been debating making the drive down and had heard nothing but negative stuff until this thread, i'm convinced its worth the trip now.
