[Uri’el-2012]

Three things jump off the page at me

1) Does everyone everyone dress this way at the range?

He wore the prescribed personal protective equipment for firearms use
(safety glasses, armored vest, head and hearing protection, nomex gloves, a long sleeve shirt, and safety boots.)

2) What does this mean? It sounds very unsafe!

PTLA will not use defective rounds for training and will dispose of them.

and three: the barrel looks like there had been a squibb load with an obstruction

I had a similar reaction to the body armor reference, but I had recently been wondering whether it might make sense to wear body armor when going to the range at a busy time (at least, to a range that doesn't have kevlar partitions)...

Another question that the article brought up is, what, exactly, is the proper way to dispose of a cartridge that you don't want to fire? Is a bullet puller the way to go? If so, what do you do with the powder, and what is the proper way to dispose of the primer?

I agree, it does look like a squib load.
