*wait??? Non shooting arm? I'm sorry I usually use two hands when I shoot.
Only load 5 bullets into your clip at a time.
Do not put a loaded clip into the gun until you are told by the range master to load.
*Clip is not the right terminology.
Our teams shoot 5 courses of fire, two of which are women's only. (The girls can shoot in the men's events, but not vice versa)
*That's just a double standard from hell.... |
wait... to "solidfy your stance" do something with your other hand? woah, okay, what stance are they using? "never fired a gun before" stance? proper stance is that whole three point thing right? feet spread about shoulder length apart... hold the weapon with both hands (held correctly as well) out in front of you... Like... you have to know how to shoot if you want to get any other licenses and such. but anyways. LOL.
Though I tend to always fall back to saying "clip" as well.. usually get a few confused looks when i'm trying to buy a few extra "clips" for my 9mm.
sounds like a student run group.. full of people who like guns but know nothing about them.
