NRA CERTIFIED RANGE SAFETY OFFICER

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Many ranges and shooting organizations are in desperate need of volunteer Range Safety Officers (RSOs).  The National Rifle Association developed this course to help ranges and organizations train those RSOs.

Although they fill a vital need on the range, RSOs are not certified instructors or coaches.

This is a course designed to prepare individuals for the basic duties of a Range Safety Officer.

RSOs ensure that shooters follow the range’s regulations in order to reduce property damage and personal injury.

RSOs often have responsibilities to take action when circumstances require it. The RSO is the range’s official on the firing line to ensure safety and to help shooters.

This is a hands on, non-live fire course with numerous practical exercises designed to allow students to experience many different firearm action types and participate in practical exercises to prepare for the RSO role.

The NRA encourages shooters to learn more and become responsible for the safety of fellow shooters through this RSO program. There will be practical exercises with all types of firearms in this course, even if a shooter’s discipline does not require experience with those types.

Every student will learn how to properly take control of firearms on the firing line and how to safely clear stoppages and malfunctions.

Students will receive coaching and feedback on the practical exercises conducted during the course.
