Defensive Pistol Safety:
 We stress safety beyond
all other principles of shooting, followed by technique and
accuracy. We offer a wide variety of shooting challenges,
designed to simulate many real and unreal situations to
create a unique, enjoyable, and challenging shooting
experience.Just as
a reminder, we run a Cold Range
This means that once you leave
your vehicle the gun must be unloaded with magazine
completely empty and the hammer must be down".
NO gun handling in the range
area before or after the match. Only place that pistols
can be handled is at the "Safe Handling Area", at your
car, or at the line under the supervision of a safety
officer.
Put your pistol on your hip at
your car, and unload your pistol before walking through the
gate at the "Action Range". This is known as cold range
rules. If the Match Director or one of the designated line
officers, witnesses this rule being broken, you'll be
disqualified from the Match.
