A PM with any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. There will probably be changes made in the future

Video wise, not bad - but my god that music gets annoying - and I'm an old metal head.

Yeah, the music is just filler and gets pretty old, but this will be played on monitors at the range with the sound off thankfully

One note.......

At the 1:06 mark, the caption says
Armor piercing, incendiary, tracer, and aluminum-jacketed rounds are not allowed.


Not to pick nits, but it should actually say aluminum-CASED.

Overall nice video. I shoot video for a living and can tell you the camera operator was either very stupid or 'brave'? at 2:47 to be down range while having the muzzle of the gun pointed at them and opening the slide. The camera was moving so it was not a "static" camera with no live body working it (unless a robotic..which I doubt).
But hey...I am sure the gun was unloaded...right :shock:

It does seem a bit long for people to view while checking in. But maybe it just right. Dono.

Joe,
At 0:54 it indicates the max bullet velocity allowed, but shows a high velocity shotshell - which is nowhere close to the velocity limit. The limit is really applying to those varmint exploding rifle rounds.

And, just wondering, what's the intended use of the video? Make all the range users watch it?

+1, and thanks for reminding me why I dislike ranges like this. Only 1 uncased firearm up at the line, having some mug "inspect" my gun... I like the BVP a lot better.

"Please do no uncase firearms" at 1:18. I agree. I'll stick with Bullseye in North Branch. Keep your filthy hand off my firearms.

You may want to add something about how to deal with jams and other gun issues. If I had a dollar for every time I've seen people waving their muzzles around while they were trying to fix their loaded gun...

Thanks everybody for taking the time to look and give the feedback. This is a "rough draft" so some of these changes will certainly be coming in the near future
