This must have been a civilian range?

Military ADs get court martial. In 21 years I witnessed one.

Yes it was civilian.

On most civilian ranges I've been on -- public and private -- I
usually witness at least one stupid, potentially deadly move per
session.

We're members in a local sportsman's club because the have good
archery facilities and a 400 yard rifle range. The fall I was there
sighting in the 30-06, doing the walk to check and rest targets, etc.

On the way back I look downrange -- I see once-a-year-before-deer-
hunting genius "setting up" his rifle.

As I approached I very casually said, "Do you mind waiting until the
range is clear before handling your rifle?"

"It's not loaded" was the reply.
