Notes for Arrival:

Handling firearms openly in a group setting takes a lot of safety procedures to keep everyone safe and to prevent accidents. Please read and comply with the following rules about how to show up with your gear:


  • Any and all firearms you bring MUST BE UNLOADED and cased upon arrival. 
  • Do not store ammo in your firearm case. You can put a handgun case and ammo case inside your range bag, but do not put ammo in your firearm case. 
  • Please keep magazines unloaded upon arrival as well. 
  • When you arrive, do not handle any firearms, ammo, or magazines until told how, when, and where to do so.
  • Please arrive 15-30 minutes early and go to the check-in area. From there, we will give you instructions on where to go and what to do. 


Failing to abide by the gun handling safety rules listed here, will get you removed from the class without a refund. Again, safety is our number 1 priority. Do not have loaded guns and do not handle firearms until told to do so.
