Most idiotic firearms "training" ever??

The students are even worse, they should never be allowed to possess firearms - EVER!!

In no world ever should that be correct

Thing is, there a LOT of idiots doing it - they think they're Russian Special Forces or some such.

The internet is full of these types of videos of 'training'.

Didn't even have his Stetson on or any jingly spurs or nuthin'!

Darwin is just biding his time.

Imagine having to PAY to get a Darwin Award

RDC: too true, and lot of so called "training" is "get you killed" stuff. I love those tw@ts who tell their students "it's OK to carry unloaded (no round chambered, safety on) when "you don't think there will be a threat"!

WTF

He's evidently got shares in a hearing aid company............in 1976, I had a t*@t fire a 1911 next to me on an open air range before waiting for the RO, and before I got my defenders on.

It's still ringing...........

I walked into an enclosed 25m firing point as someone fired a .338LM with a brake. We were still moving our kit in, no targets up and people still faffing around at the time. He was the RCO. I live with a constant hiss that only gets worse these days.

Oh jeez, that's horrible to hear. I had the pleasure of hearing a braked 50bmg outdoors, 25m away with one earplug not tightly sealed and I was deafened for an hour or so with no lasting effects. Dread to think how loud that 338LM was... Is that person still an RCO?
