... so says the Americans that they should please clean up an ugly situation into which one has maneuvered itself or other existing self-inflicted solve problems with a relatively small-time approach. Or do not be simply silly to think and act in front. Of course, this phrase can also be applied to gun training.
other day on a shooting course: The task was to one or more exercises in a darkened room shooting range to shoot. Such curricula require advanced knowledge of the subscriber in terms of weapons of manipulation, but he is due to the darkness of its main sense - that of seeing - robbed. However, trainers should have an enhanced experience to allow its participants the best possible learning progress.
In the case described the instructor gave his students the instruction immediately after the end of the exercise - to unload the gun and make safety - that is still in the dark. The lunch break was approaching and time was pressing. From
several reasons this approach may pose problems. We consider the whole thing from a general point of view, from the perspective of the shooter and in relation to the shooting range safety.
1) In general
There is no need to discharge a weapon at all in the dark. The shooter should be able to put his gun in the dark again in fire preparedness. And these routines should be practiced. No others. Is that done, go back into the gun holster or remains still in a reasonable standby position.
2) From the perspective of the shooter
The discharge of a weapon symbolizes the shooter immediately the end of a training session, the end of a shooting exercise or a competition section. In this case, but that is not given. The training situation could be reduced to the simple level: darkness = fire fight. As long as the shooter must work in restricted visibility, it has to behave according to tactical requirements. The discharging of a weapon is not among them.

to third) in terms of safety
To ensure a high standard in terms of shooting range or price certainty, it necessary to define a security protocol and to act accordingly . During the firing rates on the international stage is usually done by the following procedure: When the course ends or even before the lunch break, all participants take the firing line and stand on command of the course are derived from their firearms. It reviewed each participant also his neighbor.
In liberal-dominated countries that can not deny its citizens keeping a firearm, the log can be amended to state that students at this time to their guns again ready to fire with the respective resources ammunition (which may may differ from training ammunition) . Produce
Conclusion
A Practical Shooting Training should always be situations that can occur with a certain probability in the real world to anticipate and reflect reality. As far as the through the artificial and sterile environment of a shooting range is feasible.
On the other hand should be in the training elements that will never happen or that are tactically foolish, be avoided. The process of unloading a gun in total darkness is one of them.
