Carrygun Match March 6th?

Carry Gun Match Guidelines
Safety
  • Safety is everyone’s job. If you see something unsafe, SAY SOMETHING TO THE RANGE OFFICER (RO)!
  • This is a COLD RANGE. No guns are loaded prior to the “make ready” command prior to each stage.
  • SAFE ROOM: The room at the southeast corner of the building through the double doors.
(a) The safe room is a place to put on or take off your gun/gear. Always facing away from the doubledoors when handling your gun in the safe room.

(b Do NOT handle any ammunition in the safe room. (Load magazines anywhere EXCEPT the safe room)

  • You may load your magazines either in the waiting area or after you enter the range.
  • Do not un-holster your gun at any time until you are on the firing line and told to “make ready” by the RO.
  • Follow all range commands of the RO, as they are given. (Don’t rush, don’t anticipate!)
  • All movement and reloads must be done with the trigger finger outside the trigger guard.
  • Always keep the muzzle of your gun pointed down range. Sometimes referred to as the “180° rule”
  • Warnings may be given, but are not required.
  • If you have an Accidental Discharge (AD), STOP! Face downrange and do what the RO tells you.
  • All shots must hit the backstop for safety.Walls, ceiling and floor are not the backstop!
  • Do not shoot any target from other than the specified firing position. (Don’t try to outsmart the stage)
  • Any “prop” walls are considered to go all the way to the floor unless otherwise specified in the course of fire for the stage. If you can see a target under a wall, do not shoot it. If you’re unsure, ask the RO
  • All walls and targets are considered impenetrable. Do not intentionally shoot thru a target, prop or wall hoping to hit another target.
  • After each stage the RO will instruct the shooter to “Unload & show clear”. Remove your magazine, remove the chambered round, point the gun at the backstop and pull the trigger. If there is an Accidental Discharge (AD), it’s an automatic Match DQ
DISREGARDING ANY OF THESE GUIDELINES WILL RESULT IN A MATCH DQ
