SAFETY

SAFETY COMES FIRST
We have a no excuse policy with regard to safety, so we highly recommend familiarizing yourself with our safety standards. We adhere to the NRA's firearm safety rules.
  1. Always keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction. On our range, the safe direction is downrange.
  2. Never put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
  3. Always keep the firearm unloaded until you are ready to use it.
  4. Never go forward of the firing line for any reason.
In addition to the NRA's firearm safety rules:
  • Wear closed toe shoes and high neck line shirts
  • Never fire across lanes.
  • Never move a firearm yourself. Ask a Range Officer to help you.
  • Never attempt to repair a firearm yourself. Ask a Range Officer to help you.
  • Rapid fire is never permitted.
  • Eye and ear protection must be worn at all times while on the range.
  • Follow all instructions of range officers.
  • Bags, backpacks, purses, and coats must be left in the designated area along the back wall.
  • Refrain from eating or drinking while in the range.
  • We recommend washing hands and face after leaving the range, as well changing clothes or showering after a shooting session.

Warning: Using drugs or alcohol before or during shooting will result in immediate membership termination, and additional action will be taken.
