We have noticed several safety concerns on the range lately.  Specifically, my children have noticed them!!  Let’s all try to be good examples for the younger ones out there so we can help make them better members.

This time, I will specifically point out two things. The Safety Line and Gun Handling Etiquette.

There is a yellow safety line painted on the concrete. When the line is cold, everyone must stand here unless they are going down range to address their targets.

Standing behind this line allows those down range to feel safe that guns are not being handled and could accidentally fire on them.

When the line is cold, there is to be NO, I repeat ZERO, handling of guns. We should not be close to them, casing them, adjusting the sight, getting them from our vehicle, or putting them back.  Guns should not be handled AT ALL when the line is cold.  Only adjust, uncase, load/unload from the vehicle, or any other touching of a firearm should be done when the line is hot.

Please abide by these rules for the safety of all our members and to display safe practices for our young shooters.

Thank you!
