March 14, 2024

Qualifications for use of the Action Bays by club members, to ensure that participants can safely use a holster with a handgun and shoot safely.

In essence, there will be a written test, and you will be required to draw and fire from a holster and hit a target at thirty feet.

Requirements:

  • Center fire handgun in an acceptable caliber (see the rules)
  • Belt-style holster that completely covers the trigger guard of the gun
  • At least 30 rounds of ammo
  • Orange range card (see the CRO for replacement of lost cards)
  • Eye and ear protection
  • Baseball-style hat
  • A digital/printed copy of the rules for reference during the test
  • A pen to take the written test

Full requirements are in the Action Bay Qualification Procedures.

The test is an open book 25-question multiple-choice which must be completed in 30 minutes. The passing grade is 84%, and requires great familiarity with the rules to finish in time.

Resources: Action Bay Range Rules and Cross Functional Rules
Registration is required. Contact Action Bay Chair.
