Range Rules

COLD RANGE

Delta is run as a cold range!  All firearms must be unloaded while not actively using at a stage under RO supervision.  Pistols MUST be holstered securely with magazine removed, and hammer/trigger at rest.  They cannot be handled outside the Safety Area.  If a pistol falls on ground, you must have an RO present to retrieve it, and check it over.  Shotguns and rifles must be either slung or carried with muzzle pointed in a safe direction with a chamber flag inserted at all times!!    Or, if you have a cart present, you may keep all guns stowed in this.

 

**AMMUNITION MAY NOT BE LOADED UNTIL A RANGE OFFICER INSTRUCTS YOU TO **

 

EYES/ EARS

Proper Eye and Ear Protection must be worn at all times when you are in range area.

 

ALCOHOL

No alcohol or drugs will be allowed anywhere near shooting.  After shooting is done, alcohol may be consumed on the grounds away from range.  All guns must be put away and no carrying of guns will be permitted.  Any violation of this and you will be asked to leave.

 

ACCIDENTS

If any accidents occur, first contact an RO or Ahlman’s….we will then contact 911 if needed.  If this happens during a stage, the stage will shut down immediately.  Ahlman’s RO will determine when it can open again.

 

CHILDREN AND SPECTATORS

Children must be under adult supervision at all times.  Children that participate in shooting must be done under parent and RO supervision only.  If an RO deems anyone not safe, they will be denied shooting.  All Spectators and Children MUST have eye/ear protection or will be asked to leave.  Spectators are permitted to walk around the range, but will not be permitted in the stage area or to handle any of the shooters weapons.

 

FIREARMS HANDLING AND RANGE

Under no circumstances will shooters be allowed downrange unless it is in the stage criteria.  When you are finished shooting, you must show the RO your gun is empty, and re-holster if a pistol, or show empty rifle/shotgun to them.  Then, you will be permitted to carry your guns in a safe manner and stow away.

 

When doing a multi-gun stage, all guns will be only set down  in a handgun box with chamber open and gun empty…then you can pick up other gun and continue.  No gun shall be dropped or set on ground.  A dropped gun will stop the match, an RO will help you pickup gun, and you can re-do.  If you drop a gun, DO NOT PICK UP WITHOUT AN RO PRESENT.  No muzzle shall ever point more than 180 degrees of your direction, and no muzzle shall ever point over the berm hill….Any of these above violations will result in disqualification and possible ejection from match.

 

In the event of a serious violation or injury during a match, the RO will yell to stop the match, then will re-start the match only when he deems it safe.

 

In the event of an accidental discharge within close proximity of shooter or RO, the RO will yell to cease fire, then have shooter unload and show clear, and then will be asked to leave range.

 

When carrying guns from station to station, all guns must have visible chamber flags inserted in chamber.  No Exceptions.

 

ALL SHOOTERS AND SPECTATORS MUST SIGN AHLMAN’S LIABILTY WAIVER BEFORE ENTERING RANGE AREA
