LMFAO!....you're right

Why keep shooting when someone has clearly wondered down range. I won't disagree--he's stupid. But he doesn't need to be bleeding and stupid if it can be easily avoided.

I don't think he "wondered" down range...lol

I will have to agree Parrot, I would have stopped and CHEWED HIS BUTT!

Why do you think that?

Depends who I'm shooting with. But if it's a co-worker, this wouldn't be an issue what so ever. Anyone else, never going to happen.

Yes I would do this with ANY of my old co-workers

When I was with people I knew and trusted I had no problems doing something like this.

Matter of fact when doing pistol work I would move towards the target while a buddy was shooting his target. His target was about 5 yards off to the side of my target and he was at 25 yards while I would move up to 5-10 yards. I would NEVER do that on a public range or with anyone is did not know very, very well.

Same thing with rifles except we would start shooting at 100 yards and move to 25 yards and we rarely moved forward at the same time.

I will say that it took a few days of training before I felt comfortable with that it skills.

Very true!

Is there more context here that I saw in the video? Is this military range? Police range? Maybe I'm off base to assume this is a typical gun club or public range. Regardless, I'd rather stand behind or beside someone shooting unless there is a damn good reason to do otherwise. I'm not seeing it at a public/private range.

[Clod Stomper]

Yep.  Seems very unsafe, but there is a very small handful of people I trust enough to "break the 180" with.  If I know that they are aware and competent enough (and I tell them I'm moving up), I would do it.

 

Without doing something similar, combat troops could never "leapfrog" toward the enemy.  By that, I mean one provides covering fire and the other moves up.  Someone with actual combat training can correct my terms, please.

[wileecoyote]

Unsafe, no excuses, no circumstances make it Ok. If I was present I would have shut the line down immediately, counseled all parties with proper training followed by a warning, and if it recurred I would boot them off the range, calling the law if necessary. But then I'm a certified RSO, and I don't suffer fools with lethal implements.

They are called "3 to 5 second rushes"

Thank you.

I am on this side of the grass today, I pray for the same when I wake up, life is good.

Yall doing OK?

[Mike.357]

I made an error such as this once as a shooter,  looking back the guy down range was really never in danger. NO rounds went near him,  but still very stupid on my part.  I guess I was so focused on aim that I never saw him.  So stupid I shot anyway.

 

Still ashamed of myself.

It depends on who you're shooting with. I'd never do that on a range with unknown folks. However, this happens on about every flat range in the shooter job world. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
