I only work one 4 or 5 hour shift per month(depending on season) so I can't say it doesn't happen, but I've never witnessed it.

We politely ask that people stay until the next cold so they can retrieve their targets but I've never seen anyone force someone to stay. Now, if the line is cold and you want to leave but haven't packed up your guns (this sounds to me like the reason you were stuck waiting), we won't let you go because we can't have anyone touching firearms or ammo while the line is cold even if they're just packing up and not on the shooting bench. No exceptions!

I do admit some of the older fellas can get a little crotchety and yes, some of them are retired military who like to feel in control however, we're all out there for one reason, and one reason alone... To make sure you, the man next to you and also myself go home with the same number of holes in your body that you walked in with. You'd jump a person's arse too if you've been muzzle swept multiple times even after telling them something about it, wouldn't you?

It's all in the name of safety...

Also, if you don't like dealing with all the "strictness" or yahoos on the weekends and have a day off during the week that you'd like to go, hit me up and if I'm off also, I'll gladly bring you out there while the range is closed to the public.
