    Just for some information ,if you think you have been not treated correctly on a Civilian range ,just try a Millitary one .
    If we so much as touched something (without being told too) you would have not only your intelligence questioned but also whether you even knew who either of you parents where .
    It was funny as hell because some idiot would always do it

    Things must have changed. My recollection is that you would have a sergeants boot up your arse.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Yep your right Rushy, I remember a NCO picking up a female recruits m16 an ramming it barrel first into the dirt because she didn't have it within arms reach haha. And another recruit getting hit around the head by an NCO because we had all finished shooting and passed and he was still trying to hit the target at 300 with an SLR. Shoot, target indicated a miss by the butts and then a smack to the head haha. I think he couldn't close his left eye and keep his right open while using the sights.

    I remember once in Waiouru after a long obstacle course we had to shoot 3 rnds at 300m, and obviously I did not clean all the mud out of my AUG after a 'in the mud crawl', and it would not fire no matter what...
    The NCO made me unload, he picked it up and through it away yelling all sorts of profanity, grabbed the rifle off the guy next to me, and said if I missed the steel plate I would get charged, I hit it twice, so he was pretty nice after that...

    That sounds like the sort of tantrum a lance corporal would throw.

    There's nothing like a bit of weapons or parade drill to bring out the unco's in a group of recruits... Most people can walk normally but as soon as you get them in a formation and call it marching, a few will find their arm and leg coordination goes to hell in a handcart. These unco's are good for a laugh but not for long...
    10MRT shooters do it 60 times, in two directions and at two speeds.

    Ain't that the truth. I fell in with a group at a dawn parade in Parakai a few years back. We only had to March thirty metres bout what a bloody cock up.
