Chabot Gun Club's public lines have restrictions on firearms and shooting that are strictly enforced.
Alcohol is not allowed on the Range. Those who are "under the
influence" are not allowed to shoot.
Hearing and Eye protection are required for all shooters and anyone forward of the Red
Safety Line.
No shoes, no shirt: no shooting.
No holsters (with or without a gun in them) may be worn on the public
lines. Magazine pouches are OK.
Centerfire caliber's 50 BMG's or larger are permitted only on Monday
after 1 PM. Use is also dependant on crowding and other factors, such as Monday
holidays. If, in the the
opinion of the Range staff, any firearm is unsuitable for any particular range
at any particular time, its use may be prohibited. Call in advance.
No Rapid Fire. You must wait full 1 second between shots.
No Shotguns without full shoulder stocks.
Shotguns used on Range 1 & 2 must use "slugs" only, except at the special
patterning bench at position 53.
No rifles allowed on Range 3.
No un-aimed shooting. (Shooting from the hip, over the head, etc.)
Minimum age to shoot is 8 for rifles and shotguns and 12 for handguns.
No dogs allowed out of vehicles on Club property. There are parking and walking places outside our property.
SKS rifles are limited to only 2 rounds in the firearm at a time.
Muzzle control is strictly enforced. If a firearm is not in a case, it must be carried muzzle up, with the action open at all times.
Casing and uncasing of firearms must be done at the shooting benches with muzzles (the pointy end) pointed downrange (toward the targets)!
No arguing with the Range staff. If you don't understand something, please come up to the office and nicely explain what you are trying to do. We are here to help you and may have a way for you to do what you want or you may just have to adjust the way you do things to our system. Hassling the staff, however, just gets you the opportunity to explain yourself to the nice people in the white cars with the red & blue lights. They are great friends of the range and come very quickly when we call.
