NRA Range Safety Officers Course

3rdRcn · Jan 9, 2015

Baltimore County Game & Fish on Northwind Rd. in Carney will be hosting a range safety officers course on 2/21/2015.

The NRA Range Safety Officer program was developed in response to the demand for a nationally-recognized range safety officer certification. NRA Range Safety Officers are people who possess the knowledge, skills, and attitude essential to organizing, conducting, and supervising safe shooting activities and range operations.

The Range Safety Officer course consists of: Range Safety Officer's roles and responsibilities, range standard operating procedures, range inspection and range rules, firearm stoppages and malfunctions, and Range Safety Briefings which include emergency procedures. Candidates must also receive 90 percent or better on the written exam.

The course costs 75.00 plus NRA fee's for non BCGF members and 55.00 for BCGF members.

Please shoot me a PM if interested.

We do these classes as a community service and basically just pay the costs involved with classroom etc. Thank you for the endorsement!

Class is filling up pretty quickly folks. Please get in while you can it is far better than the on line course.

You may be able to take that home study as you can with refuse to be a victim and reloading.

The RSO class is now offered to anyone as an online class. No previous certification required. This just started; I think its $130 or $135 online. Most Chiefs give it in person for less.

Online is an option if you have time constraints, but the instructor/classroom class offers cheaper price (usually), personal knowledge and hands on that may not quite be covered in the online class. This reminds me of the concept of cooking through videos, most people can get it, but sometimes it's better to have an instructor.

3rd is an old hand at this, and if I didn't have my RSO cert already, I wouldn't hesitate to take it.

I took the course at Loch Raven, and learned a lot. Good stuff, highly recommended. It helped us develop our SOP and those that took the course (paid for by the club) now volunteer as RSOs on busy days.

The course would help you see things from a different perspective, and give you a better insight on firearms and firearms handling.

You don't need any experience just a good attitude and willingness to learn, shoot me a PM if you would like to sign up.

I would appreciate you staying out of my threads, unless you would like to take one of the classes. As stated, taking a class hands on gives you a wealth of information that you can not and do not get online. Plus I charge about half what the NRA does.

This. Although I did not take it at BCGF, it was a great course. There is a dynamic in a classroom that you can't replicate online. If I didn't already have it, I would sign up. This is a great price, especially for us members.
I got the cert to help out with my sons boy scout troop. I also have done several of the BCGF summer youth shoots. I always have a great time working with the kids.
