Many people find themselves at the range for the first time not knowing what to do and what not to do therefore I thought its best I iron out any frustrations or confusions. Again , I have been in these positions of not knowing therefore I am making it easier for other first timers.

  1. Do not point your firearm at any person even if you think it is fun! The only time you should point your firearm is when you are ready to shoot.
  2. Always keep your muzzle pointing down range at all times.
  3. Treat the firearm as loaded at all times.
  4. Always wear eye protection at all times
  5. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
  6. You should always know what is beyond your target
  7. Make sure your firearm is safe when not in use.
  8. Be familiar with your firearm, safety etc..
  9. Wear correct ear protection
  10. Never look down a barrel !!! The thought of this makes me cringe

These are a few rules to get you started however the rules can go beyond this.

Please see some protective gear below:
