14. The definition of the term “rapid fire” is generally accepted to mean any string of shots that is fired without careful and deliberate aim for each shot as well as attempting to simulate machine gun fire and/or “pulling the trigger as fast as you can”. Rapid fire is not allowed on the range.

15. Members must display their membership card at all times when at the range. Every club member has the right to ask persons that are on club property for proof of membership. Do not be offended if another member asks to see your membership card. This policy helps us keep non-members off the range. If you have any problems with this contact one of the club officers.


The violation of any range rule by any member or their guest may result in membership termination and forfiture of any dues paid.
