Requirements
If you own a firearm that you plan to carry or use for home defense, please bring it with you (unloaded) along with 50 rounds of ammunition. Please remember there is still an ammunition shortage for certain calibers. Make sure you plan in advance.
Dress comfortably in closed-toe, rubber-soled shoes. Low-cut necklines and hot brass don't mix...but you make the call; eye and ear protection if you have it (if not, it is available for a small fee on the range), pen and paper if you wish to take notes, extra cash if you need to purchase ammo or other accessories.
