Today I went to local indoor range to pop off a few rounds. At the front door of the gun shop/range there is a very prominent sign that says no loaded firearms. The owner was checking ammo and guns when shooters were paying to shoot on the range. The guy ahead of me had brought in a loaded handgun in it's box with steel case ammo which is verboten to use also. The owner was asking if he saw the sign at the door and the idiot said that he couldn't see a problem as he was going to shoot on the range anyway. He had an attitude of "don't bother me boy" I'm an expert. The owner explained that that they have had people bring in loaded guns and then take them out of it's case showing it to other people sweeping other customers. The owner unloaded the gun and allowed him to go into the range area. There is a counter at the back of the firing line where you can put your equipment on and there are very visible yellow lettering on a red background signs stating that you cannot load magazines at that table, only in the shooting stall. I looked over at the jerk and he was loading magazines at that counter and then inserted a loaded magazine in the pistol sweeping me and a couple other shooters. I was finished shooting and as I was leaving I informed the owner that Mister Can't Read Signs was loading magazines and his pistol at the counter. He cussed a bit and grabbed a pair of ear muffs and headed to the range area. I didn't stick around but as mad as the owner was I'm willing to bet he had the idiot leave.
