Basic Marksmanship Encampment Firearms Safety Training

We are looking at developing some type of Basic Marksmanship Encampment (BME) in our area.  If you are interested in earning your NRA Shooting badges with us, you must first complete some type of NRA Firearms Safety Training class.  The quickest way to do this is to attend a class given at a nearby shooting range, such as the Kenmore Shooting Range, which is about 1 mile west of our regular meeting location at the Army Reserve Center.

NRA Home Firearm Safety

A four-hour class in basic firearm safety. There is NO LIVE FIRING in this class. Upon successful completion of this non-shooting class the student will know:

The 3 Rules of Gun Safety

How To Recognize and Safely UNLOAD the 8 Basic Firearms Types (Actions)

How To Clean a Firearm

How To Store Firearms and Ammunition Safely

 

Classes are conducted on the third Saturday of each month from 10:00am to about 2:00pm in the Chalet classroom.

 

Cost: $15 per adult. Each adult may bring up to 2 children (age 12 or under) at no additional charge. Only one certificate of completion will be awarded to each paying client.

 

This class is suitable for the entire family. Children under the age of 8 years old may not be able to physically complete all the requirements of the class. However, we have had children as young as 6 years of age complete it successfully.

 

Required Materials: Pen or pencil and a notepad.

 

Sign-up at the Range Office and pay the fee prior to class.  Class reservations may be made by telephone (425) 481-8686, but must be followed up with a check for the fee before the scheduled class.

 

Contact the Kenmore Shooting Range at 425-481-8686 for information.

 

This class is NOT a CAP activity but it is a requirement for shooting with us.
