Safety at Elk Neck Range

[Fire-4-Effect]

We are getting close...

Just a reminder to everyone, class is this Sunday. Here is the info:

1. Class starts at 8:00 AM sharp, be early to enjoy donuts and coffee

2. I would ask that everyone brings the following with them:

a. Spiral ring notebook (not a 3 ring binder like I previously stated)
b. Highlighter marker
c. Pen and pencil
d. Payment (see below)

3. Please do not bring any firearms or ammunition into the classroom. This is a NRA sanctioned class and they consider this a no-no. It is common sense anyways. This includes LEO's.

4. When you complete the class you will receive a card that shows you have passed a NRA certified RSO training class. In most cases this is enough to prove you are certified. However, If you want your certification to be recorded with the NRA and have them mail you out a printed card for your wallet and a certificate suitable for framing as well as add your name to their database of certified RSO's then you will need to register with the NRA. This is different than membership. If you are currently an NRA member then the cost to register your certification with the NRA will be $26. If you are not an NRA member then the cost will be $36. We will provide the fiorms to do this in class. You can use check, cash or credit card to pay for the registration. Checks are made out to the NRA. This fee is separate from the $22.55 that 3rdRcn is charging for the materials.

5. We will be selling NRA memberships during the class. The cost will be $25 for one year. You will get an NRA hat and be able to choose your magazine such as American Rifleman, etc... You will also get the other benefits that come along with membership to include firearm insurance and a discount program. I highly recommend that everyone participating either be a member or sign up the day of, but, it is your choice.

This will be my last informative post before the class. If you have questions ask 3rdRcn or myself.

See you Sunday!

This is at the office right? Not down at the range.

It is at the Black Hills Ranger station on McKinneytown Rd. Not the Office near the range.

I didn't see my name on the list of signers on the NRA site. Brett Worley = WSM...thought I put my screen name in the comments box.

Our instructors really knocked it out of the park. Topher and Fire-4-Effect drove all the way from Fredneck to teach today, quite a long haul. 3rdRcn probably spent the most time on the road out of all of us. He lives closer to the range than some folks, but he had to make two trips because before the class even started.

Very glad I signed up to take this class and volunteer my time to help out our community. It was a long day, but a productive one. Very nice meeting some new folks today as well as some that I know from previous encounters.

This is yet another reason for Mdshooters.com's existence. In addition to protecting our rights legislatively, and financially through supporting the industry partners that treat us so well we need to give back a little every now and then to those that typically don't ask for our help.

The accident at Elk Neck a while back might have been prevented; we have no way of knowing for sure. But by having a large group of mdshooters' members volunteer their entire Sunday (and what a beautiful Sunday it was!) we've shown our commitment to safety, the future of shooting sports and 2nd amendment rights in Md, and most importantly we'll reduce the risk of any future accidents.

I think between the two classes (The one at Cresap I recently took and today's class) we now have around 30 more safety officers to help watch each other's back.

The members of this forum are responsible, generous, and dedicated.

Cheers fellas.

I can speak for Phil and Mike when I say, we became CRSO's and instructors looking for students like we had to day.

Wish you the best of luck with ENSF!

It was a great class. Very informative, with useful information to help us when interacting with new shooters, as well as the most advanced shooters. After the class was over, Terry took a handful of us over to the shooting range to see where we would be performing our duties. It's a great facility, with plenty of room for alot of shooters. To all of those who put this together for us, thank you very much.
