Range Rules
We follow IDPA rules for all matches. Follow the instructions of the Safety Officers and understand the
Match Director is the final authority on range rules and safety issues.
- We run a cold range. Guns may only be loaded on the firing
line, under the direct supervision of a Safety Officer.
- All gun handling must be done in the designated safety
areas.
- No lead or steel jacketed bullets may be used on an indoor range.
- All first gun shooters must finish, before we allow second
gun shooting. Second gun shooting requires adequate safety
officers and range clean up after shooting.
- This is an all volunteer sport. Obey all range commands
promptly. Be ready to shoot and help in any way you can
to speed the match and assure everyone's safety. Absolutely
no smoking, food or drink is allowed on the indoor range at Metro.
What To Bring
- A positive attitude and desire to learn.
- A properly working pistol or revolver, 9mm or 38 caliber
or larger.
- A strong side holster that covers the entire trigger guard,
no pocket, shoulder, appendix, or cross draw permitted.
- At least 150 rounds of jacketed ammunition.
- At least 3 magazines or speed loaders. 5 or more definitely
preferred as it speeds the match.
- Please review the rules and send note before the match
if you have questions on the rules. Examples include revolvers
being limited to 4" barrels, external modifications
being strictly limited on SSP guns like the Glock, etc.
We can not allow you to use illegal equipment and the SOs
will be checking equipment to assure it complies to the
simple standards of the class gun you are shooting. New shooters may be permitted to use illegal equipment at the sole discretion of the Match Director if it judged safe to use, provides no competitive advantage and is remediated by the next match.
