Could be a winner . . .

All Guides are one big sheet.
Waterproof material smart idea BUT one big sheet is brainless.
Needs to be spiral bound.

An unorganized, inaccurate, soup sandwich of a mess.

Unorganized:
The Gold Standard in Gun Safety. #1 is precisely vague. Too many words, the writer got lost. "Safe direction means that if the gun went off it would not cause injury or damage." Targets? How do you use a target without causing damage (other than missing)? Hunting, self-defense, law enforcement, military: the aim is to cause injury and damage, also in the putting down of a wounded animals.
Christian World View has points 1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 6. (Where's 4?) And these points are not in any order, they randomly bounce all over the place.
BB and pellet guns are "FIREARMS" (Seriously! That does not meet the normal historical definition.)
Airsoft is jumbled together. Airsoft Power, then Airsoft Ammunition, then pictures of Airsoft Power.
"Types of Firearms" should have been labeled "Actions of Firearms" (with a more complete set of actions.)
Cartridge Firing Sequence #2 the arrow that got away is pointing to a non-relevant part of the guide
This was only briefly looking at it without delving into detail. The organization is slipshod at best. There is no natural flow to the guide. It is required reading for getting a badge for the Trailmen (and my 3 sons) in our Troop. It's cumbersome and improperly represented. It should be in handbook form, not poster, and should have been reviewed by a person with experience in the industry to offer technical and literary guidance.

Almost worthless format and information

Large map fold sheet format makes it unusable anywhere but at home on the kitchen table. Should be in booklet format especially at this price.
Very weak information leaving us leaders to "figure it" out on our own. Its pointless since it is not practical to use outdoors which is where you need the information.
Furthermore, all this information should be in the Trail Life Hand Book.

Not a fan

I was expecting a book with chapters that gave some detail. Instead, I got a map-folded pamphlet that barely scratched the surface. Not a big fan. Thankfully, I had the NRA material to fall back upon.

Big Mistake

I have seen the old guide, which was a book, and it was much more usable. This one is so cumbersome that I'm hesitant to ask my Navigators to get it. I wish Trail Life had not made this change.
