you cant fix stupid!
I have never seen anyone asked to leave a public range or retail range,,But I have left because of them. You tell the employees and they really dont care to busy on that retail paper chase. I just dont go to them any more.
Must be nice... it's the only option I have. We did leave the range the other day... got very crowded and clearly a lot of new shooters.
Yes I helped make it happen . The guy was fingering a .44 of some sort while people were down range including me, He also pointed the gun at me.I was policing my brass from out front . I asked him nicely to put the gun down . He refused stating the gun was not loaded . I got the RO problem solved. He is a member here and on GON as well. Unloaded guns kill people . He is stupid no other way to describe it . This was at the Red Hill Range fall MG shoot
More than a couple. Gone. No questions. Only on military ranges unfortunately.
(I have done it with folks on a private range in a CR situation more than once)

guy shot a hole through the target track at an indoor range,he took it on himself to leave.
Yes, more than once.
I've only had to do it once w/ a self-taught shooter w/ decades worth of range scars.
During dry-fire drills he would dry-fire once then point the gun at his foot with his finger in the trigger as he leaned forward & squinted at the target... as I'm sure he had done many times before during live-fire. How he had not shot himself in the past remains a mystery to me.
Intellectually he understood what he was doing wrong but he had so many repetitions doing it the wrong way he just couldn't stop himself.
I had a big group so called for a break, pulled him to the side, & told him he was done for the day. I did bring him out another day, one on one, to fix his problem,
It took about 45 min. to re-program his body on how to handle his gun safely.
One situation that happened at a school I attended (that in addition to travel, lodging, & ammo costs the tuition alone was $600) the lead Instructor witnessed a safety violation early the first day & sent the offender packing w/o a refund.
Zero tolerance in action.
