    I have a few vague emails stating just that ...the ATA is again on the heels of Dave Shaeffer.

    Dave has been a polarizing character. Who has the scoop on this? I am reaching out. I want the facts.

    I report. You decide.
    merlo out.

    Dave has been popular on this forum. That is enough to get you double secret probation.

    I have the complete scoop for you merlo.... the Maryland state shoot dbls. Championship Dave was shooting on a squad that happen to have the Maryland sec. Treasurer on it who Dave happened to give him a ride to the trap on Dave own golf cart. Then after 4 or more time on first 50 of the guys gun doubling. Dave ask him on the way to second fifty how long has this been going on... well all summer. Then again after doubling 4 or 5 time again after the 100 was over Dave called him a dumb xxxx and told him to get his own ride back. So the 3 letter agency ATA... want him out of life. But settled for 2 years 364days. That way he couldn't appeal. And they refused Dave counter complaints. The the guy was disrupting the harmony of the shoot and breaking safety . By shooting a malfunctioning firearm. Which was OK with them Just get rid of Dave......

    My understanding from a brief conversation with Dave, was this guy was pretty nonchalant about shooting a defective firearm and disrupting the "harmony"of the shoot/shoots all summer long.
    What a great example!!

    They have been wanting to can his ass ever since that run in he had with Sandra Jo Jack a couple of years back. Granted he has a rather abrasive demeanor but I have seen far worse from some ata office holders.

    Sandy jo jack was spreading lies in Vegas that he got booted for grabbing the sheet out of the girls hand and changed the score. More bullshit . If you are going to say something say it right or don't open your mouth. Ray Greb. Never ever talked to Dave. He should have recused himself as a conflict of interest. See a maryland state offical was causing the safety issue. But calling somebody a dumb xxxx and not taking them back to there camper. Is more serious than a gun malfunctioning. That's how the 3 leter agency the ATA rolls. xxxx .
