Russians that i knew (i was once fluent in russian, so i spent a lot of time translating) are MUCH more lax at the range yet they seem to have about the same number of accidents.

We were on an M16 range with them showing their SpecOps gents the finer workings of the M4 carbines and in the middle of the live shoot one of the 'reds' stood up and began walking up to his target! We ceased fire on the range and asked what the hell he was doing, he just smiled and said "I think soldiers of this caliber can hit their targets. As long as i do not walk in front of their targets, i should be ok." and he proceeded to check his target. When he got back, he leaned over to me and said "Now, if we were on a british range, the safest place would be IN FRONT of their targets."

Silly russians...
