Rifle Merit Badge

What a handsome guy instructing the boy scouts in the care and cleaning of a rifle!

Gary was the lead for the Rifle Merit Badge this October. He spent a few meetings instructing the boys in firearm safety, the rules and regulations of firearm shooting, care and cleaning of a rifle as well as several other requirements from the Boy Scouts of America merit badge book. Finally the big day arrived and the troop headed out to the local police shooting range.
Everyone had to wear their eye and ear protection and shoot from a prone position.
Lots of parents and leaders were on hand to ensure good, safe behavior while they took turns shooting.
Here's the group of boys that are working on completing the merit badge. Lucky guys to get to spend the day at the range!
