At the start of the range day, you MAY bring CASED firearms to the firing line during target set up time. 

HOWEVER, Do NOT uncase any firearms until AFTER the safety briefing is complete AND RSOs have communicated that the Firing Line is Hot.

Throughout the remainder of the range day, firearms will be brought and removed from the firing line CASED, and only uncased and re-cased AT the firing line and ONLY when the firing line is HOT. 

There will be NO handling of uncased firearms whatsoever while the firing line is COLD.

Drawing from holsters will be permitted at the RSO Team discretion.  Firing line congestion and other risk factors will be considered in making the decision.  RSO decision is not negotiable!

Shooters must bring their own targets, target stands, tools, fasteners, personal protective equipment, and other materials.

Targets are limited to paper, wood, plastic, and approved ballistic steel.

Shooters are responsible for ensuring their target stands are not in the line of sight of other targets and they are not shooting someone else’s target.  That includes USMC PITS.  Know what is up and down range of your target.  The RSOs will check this, and lost range time will result if an issue is discovered. 

CLEAN UP – PACK IT IN PACK IT OUT

ALL target material and brass must be removed from range after rec fire. Please pick up your own brass and trash.  Brass buckets will be available for casings, NOT trash.  Pack it in. Pack it out.

Do NOT expect to arrive at Gate 7 at 0730-0745 and be able to place targets, you will be too late and have to wait.  Mid morning we go into pits to mark / repair targets for 10 minutes only.  No...not enough time to put up targets so get here at 0715 like everyone else and set up targets for the day.

You do not have time to fool around and build the Taj Mahal, have your steel target sorted out for quick install / take down.  Don't be that guy...come ready. 

Shooters:  All Shooters come prepared for quick target set up. No vehicles on any grass, keep on roads. Targets, hydration, sun screen, bug spray and food - bring yours-- none provided.  YOU MUST Wear ear plugs and ear muffs and have eye protection per USMC base regulations.

American Trap and Skeet

The Shotgun Range includes one International Trap field for international single and double-trap events, two Skeet fields, Wobble Trap field, and an American Trap field.  Up to 7.5 shot ammunition may be used on this range – no buckshot or slugs. The Club provides clay targets for members and guests at $5.00 a round (25 targets). 

Skeet or improved cylinder chokes are recommended for Skeet. Improved cylinder through improved modified are recommended for American Trap. Modified through extra full are recommended for International Trap. This will give you the best chance of hitting the target.

Shotguns of any gauge may be used however the gun must have a minimum barrel length of 18 inches and a stock. No short-barreled, “sawed-off”, or magazine fed shotguns may be used. The gun must also be legally classified as a shotgun, as defined in 18 U.S.C., § 921(A)(5) and 27 CFR § 478.11.

General Guidelines:

All guests must check in at the QSC Clubhouse with their club member sponsor to pay the guest fee and sign waivers prior to shooting. 

Bring your CASED firearms and gear to the firing line only AFTER you have checked in with an RSO, shown your QSC membership card, your guests have shown their guest passes, and all shooters have completed and signed the club sign-in sheet. 

Do NOT uncase any firearms until AFTER the safety briefing is complete AND RSOs have communicated that the Range is Hot.

Shooters showing up throughout the day will first sign in and then receive a safety brief from an RSO prior to carrying gear to the firing line. 

The range will go hot/cold as needed at roughly 45/15 minute intervals, and more frequently if it will optimize range usage. 

Steel Targets:

Non-metal pistol targets must be placed and shot in a manner so that all rounds impact the downrange impact berm. No shooting directly into the dirt in front of you.

Firing Line:

The firing line MAY be established forward of the Shoot House 2 paved area to maximize distance between shooters and range capacity. When aligned forward of the overhead cover and on the dirt, there will be orange cones on the left and right limit of the firing line indicating the farthest positions that shooters can occupy on the firing line. Shooters should plan accordingly for grass and dirt. Use of a tarp is suggested.

Shooters should identify their intended target distance to the RSO upon checking in. An attempt will be made to put shooters engaging distant targets on the left and shooters engaging closer targets on the right, as viewed from the firing line to the pits.

Drawing from holsters may be permitted at the RSO Team discretion. Firing line congestion and other risk factors will be considered in making the decision.

Trash and Residue:

ALL target material, shell casings, and trash must be removed from the range after firing. There should be no trace of activity left on the range. If you pack it in, pack it out. If you move tables forward of their position in the covered area, you are responsible for putting them back. 

Environmental: Bring tick repellant, sunscreen, and water.
