   • Eye Protection – MANDATORY! – we do not provide this and everyone on the shooting range is required to have and use eye protection.
   • Firearms & Ammo – Firearms of your choice. We are not law enforcement, and do not check to be see if  your firearms are legal. We do reserve the right to ask members and guests to not use firearms or ammo that we think are unsafe.
   • Targets – Some targets are provided in the form of steel plates and we have backer boards for paper targets to be attached. You must bring your own paper targets. We do not allow shooting at items such as old electronics or anything with glass (like bottles or china plates, etc)

9. When can I shoot?
