Note: Students need to have a valid Mass. LTC in order to take this class as well as the required equipment.
WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING and further instructions (PLEASE READ THESE
CAREFULLY):
• Mass. LTC and current DF&GC member card (only necessary if you are a member of the club). These credentials must be with you on class day.
• Eye and ear protection made for shooting (electronic ear pro is recommended—easier for you to hear range commands) Note: Noise canceling headphones (Bose, Sony, etc.) are not ear protection. YOU MUST SUPPLY YOUR OWN EYE AND EAR PROTECTION–we have none to loan out.
• Hat with a brim (to keep hot shell casings out of hair/face). Clothing appropriate for the weather (no sandals or open-toe shoes).
• Semi-automatic AR-15, Tavor, or AK variant rifle chambered in a centerfire or rimfire cartridge (examples : 5.56×45 [.223], 5.45×39, 7.62×39, 7.62×51, .22LR), (other platforms/calibers may be allowed pending instructor approval). NO full-auto firearms allowed, including binary triggers and other rapid-fire assist devices (if it’s on your gun, take it off before class).
• Your rifle must be brought to the range in a case. Firearms will remain cased until class begins and instructors have given the okay to remove guns from cases.
• At least two magazines with a capacity of at least 10 rounds each. Larger-capacity, pre-ban mags are welcome as well.
• 80 rounds of ammunition
• Snacks, water or sports drinks
• A pen and pad are recommended if you wish to take notes
