NO CHILDREN ON RANGES

Military ranges are no place for children and QSC does not allow children on the ranges we operate. While we understand a spouse or partner may want to "visit" to watch range operations, bringing infants in stollers, toddlers, etc., onto the ranges creates situations where a child could be injured. QSC could never justify such and preventable incident.

As a reminder, QSC has an age waiver for children who are shooting and continually supervised by and adult: "...This letter is to formally notify the Quantico Shooting Club (QSC) is authorized to change the minimum age requirements for ranges owned and operated by Marine Corps Installations National Capital Region-Marine Corps Base Quantico (MCINCR-MCBQ) to minimum of eight (8) years of age.  All shooters under the age of 15 must be within arms reach and be directly supervised by an adult over the age of 18."

The same policy applies to any match run or sponsored by the QSC.
