RANGE RULES FOR THE FIRING LINE

Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the rules of our range prior to your visit. We always ask that ALL firearms are brought into our store unexposed and cased in anything (bag, hard case, range bag, wrapped in a beach towel). For your safety, the staff's safety, and everyone else visiting our facility, at no time should you expose or handle a firearm anywhere other than your assigned shooting bench. We take safety as our top concern and want everyone to leave without any extra holes in their body at the end of the day!
