Can't blame the ranges for needing to have safety rules.

A couple of years ago, at the indoor range, I went downstairs to the actual range area and, as I walked in, I saw a father with his young son. Great, right? No ... NOT great. The kid wasn't tall enough to see over the bench, so the father had gone out to the spectator area and brought in one of those molded plastic patio chairs (you know -- the ones that have legs the collapse if you lean back in them) and had the kid standing on this flimsy chair to shoot.

Like the chairs in this image: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....1GjF9Fo52L.jpg

I'm not a range officer for this range, but I am a certified range safety officer, and I didn't even take the time to go upstairs and rat the guy out. I just told him to stop doing that RIGHT NOW. (The range owner later thanked me.)

Some people don't have enough brains to come in out of the rain ... and they breed.
