At New Pioneer Gun Club, safety is our top priority. Every member and guest is expected to follow strict safety guidelines to ensure a secure and enjoyable environment for all. Key rules include: always keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, keeping firearms unloaded when not in use, never relying solely on a gun’s “safety,” and being certain of your target and what lies beyond it. Use the correct ammunition, handle misfires with care, and always wear eye and ear protection. Make sure barrels are clear of obstructions, avoid modifying firearms, and have them serviced regularly. Learn the mechanical and handling characteristics of each firearm you use, and never shoot after consuming alcohol. Following these practices keeps the range safe, responsible, and welcoming for everyone.
