First Timer at the Shooting Range

Angry? Emotional? Stressed? Whatever whether, it’s just a bad day, not a bad life.

This was actually my first time to be at the shooting range. I was very nervous but excited at the same time. Luckily, we went to Commander Shooting Range, everyone was so very accommodating & friendly, I did not feel any intimidation at all even it’s my first time.

We were introduce to Kuya Jose, a range officer. He gave us our goggles for eye protection and ear muffs for ear protection. He also handed to us the target sheet, bullets or ammunitions & the GUN. And yes, that was the moment I was able to handle a gun, it immediately put my fears to rest.

Our range officer helped us with everything that we need, he provided instructions & safety reminders on how to properly hold a gun. He also assured us that he will be there the whole time to assist. He really made me feel that first timers are always welcome.

Angry folks, emotional individuals, stressed yuppies can all find their release at the shooting range. Just be careful, though, because a gun is not a toy. When not handled properly or without knowing the range etiquettes, damage can be done.

Seeing and hearing the bullets hit the target one by one is a different kind of thrill, especially since nobody gets hurt and everyone is having a good time. For me, it’s a perfect way to get rid of negative feelings and have fun at the same time.

This was my target sheet after 10 rounds had been shot from the gun in my hands: (Not bad for a first timer, right? 😂😂😂)

Thussss, if you’re looking for a way to de-stress, I’m definitely sure that firing would be the perfect activity to try. 😊

This first timer is definitely willing to give firing in Commander Shooting Range another go, that’s why after the shooting, I didn’t hesitate to apply for a membership.

Hey there girl, I'm Oatmeal Joey Arnold, and good work with the shooting, the firing, the aiming, at the shooting range. Some people are scared of guns. But it is kind of like riding a horse or like swimming. It is a wonderful thing to learn and to have.
