This is why we wear saftey glasses....

Found it in some 70's vintage federal boxes in the trash at the range... don't know the story and it really doesn't matter. It only takes a second for you to loose your depth perception.... ;)

I once knew this old guy ( :wink: ) who went to the range with a .30-30 and a .303 Brit. Grabbed the wrong ammo and fired not one, not two but THREE shots before he figured out something must be wrong. :shock:

Glasses Hell... I have a spare eye.....

Back to serious mode.....I can't recall going to a "real" range that would knowingly allow someone to come to the line without safety glasses. There is a reason that you should wear them and jnyork just pointed it out in case anyone needs a refresher..... :)

As an afterthought I will add.... I shoot a lot of handgun steel and have been hit in the face with splatter (some worse than others) a number of times and "somewhere" on the body at damn near every match I have ever been to.
