I OC'd a holstered handgun today at Pontiac Lake Shooting Range, shooting some slug ammo from my shotgun. The range officer (RO) informed me that an "administrative rule" on concealed/open carry at DNR ranges had recently come out, and is as follows:
If a person shows the range officer that they have a CPL, they may carry concealed and/or openly at the range, including downrange when placing targets.
A person not having a CPL (or, I guess, not having notified the RO that they have a CPL), may carry openly except downrange. Before going downrange, their firearm must be at their station, unloaded and action open.
The RO said he did not have a hard copy of this rule, but when he got it he would post it at the bulletin board at the tower.
Anyone else heard of this? It seems to unnecessarily infringe on non-CPL's rights, and increase the chance of an unintended discharge.
