Along that side there are cubicles with glass doors facing this wall, and glass sliding doors opening into the gallery.
Each cubicle has a loading table with drawers for cartridges, etc.
These cubicles have transverse walls in pairs leading to this wall, so as to enable pairs of shooters, if they so desire, to shoot, without being disturbed by the rest of the shooters.
The shooter goes with an attendant into one of the cubicles; the door leading to the gallery is shut and the door on to the range is opened.
The shooter can be seen from the gallery but he is not disturbed by people talking or coming near him.
The assistant loads the pistols, works the metronome, keeps the score, etc.
If the score is good enough to win a prize the assistant calls the secretary to see the target and verify the score and record it in his book before the shots are painted out.
Paper targets shot at are brought to the secretary for verification and signed and kept by him.
Over the top of these open-air passages down which the shooting takes place, wires are stretched to break the sound, so as not to annoy the neighbours.
There are also sloping boards at intervals above, so that a shot let off by accident cannot do any harm—the boards catch all wide bullets.
