Thread: SOMEONE DIDNT IDENTIFY THEIR TARGET

Not necessarily an identification problem, could be a safety issue.

Considering one never has to actually handle a firearm when being approved for a FAL I am surprised there are not more accidents. And one does not need a FAL to go hunting with a rifle...one does need to be with someone who does have a FAL, but then if the FAL holder is a fuckwit the chances of dangerous practises at the very least doubles.

Seen exactly that plenty of times Spook. Guys with very bad firearms handling practices passing on there bad habits to inexperienced newbies. I have said it before and I will say it again. I believe we should have an actual firearm handling competency test on top of the regulations exam in order to get your FAL. They do this in Canada and it works very well.
