Ahhh, the joys of going "down range". The Four Rules light is always on.
Be sure of your target and its backstop.
Gunsite is having problems getting this across to its students lately. Let us at INGO always remember that the Four Rules always apply as the Four Rules are life.

Man mistaken for target shot during Ariz. gun training
A 50-year-old man was mistaken for a target and accidentally shot during an exercise at a firearm-training facility in northern Arizona, authorities said.
The Florida man was training with three of his colleagues Sunday at the Gunsite Academy in Paulden, which is about 30 miles north of Prescott, the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office said Thursday.
The man was standing on a catwalk as his colleague fired at targets. The colleague saw the black silhouette of the man and fired, shooting the man in the abdomen, officials said.
Instructors administered first aid before he was flown to a local hospital for treatment and surgery. On Thursday, he was listed in good condition.
Trainees had been told not to shoot in the area of the catwalk. No charges were expected against the shooter.
Buz Mills is the owner of the facility and candidate for governor. "We are relieved this client is in good condition thanks to the swift actions of our staff at Gunsite and the dedicated paramedics at the Central Yavapai Fire District," Mills said. Mike Scerbo, press secretary for Buzz Mills, said Mills has owned Gunsite Academy since 1999.

Thinking? 
No way. Even elemental thinking would know better than this dimwit. You can't fix stupid. 
As the man said above, take his guns away for the safety of his friends.
