[QUOTE="tul9033, post: 1504391, member: 2319"] One of the "official" range commands for IDPA is "Unload and Show Clear". "Range is Safe" is the all clear. At least to me the appropriate SO response to "Unload and Show Clear" is "I see clear" if you are checking which I think you should be. Obviously there are differences in a SO and RO and IDPA/USPSA as far as commands and rules which I'm sure contributes to some confusion. I will say that that attending a SO/RO class is much more than range commands. As an alternative there is Jack's yearly SO class which would at least cover some of the basic safety rules/tips to watch out for. Edit: Cleaned up to prevent confusion. I was thrown off by Mike's example of saying clear during the range commands. Apparently "Show clear" is part of the range commands. Not being a USPSA shooter, do they have an official RO safety course? [/QUOTE]
