Coming to the end of the unloading procedure. gun has been called clear by the Range Officer, the flag is inserted and the gun is then carried muzzle down.
(probably in the hundreds) was making my head pound. “If you’ve finished, unload and show clear.” Followed by a “Well done.” “Yes” I gasped, “Well and truly done.” The wash-up was, as we had now come to expect, constructive and useful. There followed a few anxious moments while we were called, one by one into a separate room for our personal wash-up, I received a hearty handshake from my instructors and presented with my Basic Safety Course Certificate and my competition licence. The course was as demanding, as I had expected, instructive as it should be, and enjoyable. I cannot thank my instructors enough for their generosity, my fellow students enough for their company and Carlisle Range enough for their hospitality. All I can hope to do is recommend them all to you most heartily, and, for myself and all of you. Shoot safe, shoot well.
