Arriving late may lead to the rescheduling of your qualification to a different time slot or even a different date\, depending on the number of shooters already registered for the subsequent time slot. For instance: if you have registered for the 0830-0945 time slot\, you should arrive around 0815 hours and anticipate beginning shooting at approximately 0845. \nPlease limit this to your Duty weapon exclusively at this moment. Once we are fully operational\, we will introduce additional time slots for off-duty weapons. \nUpon Arrival\, please make you weapon “safe” near the entrance at the handgun clearing station (Red unloading station). SAFE: removing your magazine\, pointing the barrel of your weapon into the RED unloading station and extract the round in the chamber. Lock the slide to the rear and holster. Do NOT reinsert your magazine into your weapon. The Firearms Staff will not accept your handgun until it is deemed to be in safe configuration ( Magazine removed\, Empty chamber\, and Slide locked back). \n*We are limited on ear and eye protection. A good investment to your career and training should include a personal set of ear protection and clear lens safety glasses. \nFor More information click here
