All,
Looking putting together a rifle merit badge course in the Edgewater/ Annapolis area, and had a few questions for the members that may have done it before.
I have access to a range, and training room. I was planning on using 10/22s single loaded, but the book says semi auto is a no--no, but repeaters are ok single loaded (yes, my understanding of repeaters are bolt action magazine fed rifles). In the merit badge book, semi-autos are referred to as repeaters. Do I use this reference to use the 10/22s or use bolt actions?
Also, most of the rifles I have seen are iron sights, are optics allowed?
Any information from the knowledge base would be greatly appreciated.
