Range Safety Officers

AAF&G Range Safety Officers (RSOs) represent the Officers and Directors of AAF&G on Club Property in enforcing the Range Use and Safety Rules. Their decisions and directions must be followed. Willful violation of AAF&G rules and policies, or failure to comply with a Range Safety Officer, will result in a review by the Board of Directors, which may lead to the loss of membership and/or visitation privileges.

Per the Bylaws, the Board of Directors sets the criteria for becoming an AAF&G RSO. These are:

  • Be a Member in good standing for at least one (1) year.
  • Be certified as an NRA Range Safety Officer.
  • Be recommended by the Chair of any one of the range committees.
  • Perform a new Member orientation walk-through.
  • Be interviewed and approved by the AAF&G Chief Range Safety Officer.

Once appointed, a Club RSO maintains that status while a Member in good standing until it is voluntarily relinquished.
