| Q: Gun handling. |
| A: Tri County Gun Club is a "Cold" Range. You can
unbag and handle your firearm(s) only in a Safety Area or under the direct
supervision of a range officer. There are two Safety Areas at our facility.
1. is across the road from the range 1, range 2 area.. The other is between
range 5 and the rifle garage. You may work on your firarm(s), take sight
pictures and dry fire (in a safe direction). NEVER handle live or dummy
ammunition while in a Safety AREA - That is viewed as a MATCH
DISQUALIFICATION. |

| Q: Do I have to be a USPSA member to shoot your matches? |
| A: No. You can shoot our matches but you can not become classified unless
you do. You will be put in the "Unclassified" category at registration and
will be competing against the best shooters at the match, not those of
similar skills. We recommend becoming a member of USPSA. We have membership
information available at our matches and will help you get registered.
Current annual membership is $40 |
