Thread: Downwards or Safest Direction

Concrete floors are a concern in say small bore ranges, so there it is up, outside range in paddock is down. So in a direction that is safe makes sense to me. I didn't sit any test when I got my licence, nice arms officer just wrote it out and I said thanks. I was meant to have it for a life time, but they changed the rules and now I have to pay.
I guess we just grew up with firearms, I remember talking with my hunting mates and deciding rules when hunting together. New shooters we took out were told the rules.
Old hammer shotguns were the real danger, sweaty fingers on hammers were banned after my mate nearly shot my foot off, hammers were palmed after that.
