Re: SWFA SS 5-20x50 HD Picture thread.......
Since we're telling range tales here. I was at a large public range several years ago and the person in the shooting bay had asked me to help him with his scope; zeroing it at 100 yards. As I looked over at his rifle, he had the scope mounted so that the elevation and windage knobs formed a "V" at 10:30 and 1:30. Obviously his crosshair looked like an "x" instead of "+". I had a good chuckle, as did he.
I also once saw (same range) some guy who was obviously new to shooting, take a brand new Glock out of its box, look it over and proceed to load it by turning the gun upside-down and pouring a box of ammo into the magwell, then try to use the magazine as a plunger. ! Someone next to him quickly saw and assisted him (I would have if he didn't), but I decided that it was a good time to pack things up and head home for the day before he figured out how to shoot it.
