Lesson number one when shooting at a gun range: Never, ever point a weapon at your friend's head -- or anyone's head for that matter.

I’d ban him from range with quickness. That’s just fricking stupid. And I don’t want anyone that stupid using my range.

Both men are actually banned now from that range for life.

I shouldn’t laugh, but how dumb can you be.

It would not surprise me if they get banned from multiple gun ranges in the area. I would imagine a gun range owner would either see this in the news, or they know the other nearby gun range owners and would ban these dipshits as well.

Gunny Says Keep Your Effing Weapon Pointed Downrange

Love this scene from the Pacific. I’m thinking the RSO had similar comments.

They could probably tell from the minute they walked in that they were idiots, but the Rangemaster was definitely watching them as soon as he saw the phone come out. He probably knew it wasn’t a matter of if he had to step in but when.

Not only pointed it at the guy's head, finger was full on the trigger.
That guy was astoundingly dumb and his friend is lucky.

Hopefully it is a lifetime ban. Looks like finger was on trigger as well.

If he was staging a selfie then it's a "prop" gun, right?

People are stupid.

I used to average a thousand rounds a month shooting USPSA matches. Never an accident and if there was an AD during a stage it was always pointing downrange.

I always hated going to public ranges outside of matches.

I was at Nicks in Garyville and some of the knuckleheads that come up from N.O. have terrible gun handling. I lost track of the number of times I was swept at the shooting deck.

Have to yell at the dumb arses, "Hey, do you mind not pointing the muzzle of your AR directly at me?"

Usually get the reply "It ain't loaded."

"Says you? Doesn't matter don't point that thing at me."
