One time I was on my uncle's property and me, my brother, and two cousins were shooting down at his creek. Good backstop and all that. Anyway we've been blasting away for about ten to twenty mins or so. Well we were on a part of the creek where the other side had about a 15-20 ft cliff on the other side. We are shooting down into the creek on a sand bar. Well I hear this four wheeler drive up down the river a hundred yards, then I see this guy just bust out of the brush blasting a shotgun into the air about four or five times. Anyway he looks at us with this surprised look on his face, said something like "Nevermind sorry", and then ducked back into the brush. Four wheeler starts up and drives off.

To this day I wonder what he was doing. We had shot down there MANY times before. We had excellent backstop and I know no rounds were fired over the top of the cliff. We were shooting enough that I know he couldn't think we were hunting. I still wonder to this day just what the heck he thought he was doing.

Anyway funny thing about it was I was the only one that grabbed cover as soon as he busted out of the brush with a shotgun. My relatives all just stood there and watched him. I was behind a truck with my M1A frantically trying to get some rounds into an M1A mag I had just emptied. The guy never shot at us and I'm glad for that. I'd hate to have to shoot back when I had no idea what the heck he was even blasting about. However seeing as we were on our side of the creek, shooting in a very safe maner, I don't think he would have had any provocation to use force against us so i probably would have fired back had he started shooting at my relatives.
