Well . . . I dunno.
I guess I would expect a range to have a rule that requires that all firearms be legal. But beyond that . . . I don't think it's the range's business to VERIFY that they're legal.
I think it's bullshit when an RSO asks to see the tax stamp for a suppressor or an SBR. I don't expect an RSO to come and ask me to prove that I'm not a felon. I don't expect an RSO to come get my serial numbers and run them through hotgunz.
Similarly, I don't think an RSO should be out there checking for a gap between brace and shoulder. Even if you DO shoulder it, what's to say that it's not a legal SBR with a brace? If the RSO sees you shoulder a short-barreled rifle with a stock, should he ask to see a tax stamp?
Meh. Leave the legalities to the cops and the ATF. The RSO should just stick to "safety," as the name implies.
