This is why I haven't gone to honey island. Do lots of barricade shooting and mobile drills and I would get shredded. No thanks

So what is it exactly that you did?

Eh, some of it is a little overbearing, but I'll take it if I can be assured the asshat shooting the 50 cal at 25 yards next to me won't muzzle sweep the entire line. I completely understand the need to have standards because you have all different types of people with all different types of experience out there

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. Perk of being a Range Safety Officer. CDANIEL985@GMAIL.COM

I agree with chad504boy
The guys there for the most part are kind of rude. I always laugh when I go with my father in law bc he parks by the checkin bc he has a handicapped tag. When they give him crap about it he says: "look at the goddamned scars on my legs arse&$!@"
