We will say that we are done yet, but this is a good first start. We encourage you to read these rules! We are focusing on safety after we have had some recent issues. Please click on the Range Rules link on our web page! Modified verbiage for eye and ear protection – Made Eye and ear protection required but can use discretion for suppressors and air guns.

ASC Family, Just a couple days away and I am so excited to be your presenter for the Safe and Secure Online cyber-security presentation next week. The presentation is completely free. I am a proud member of the Airfield Shooting Club and an NRA Instructor. In my day job, I am an IT Instructor for the US Navy. I have worked in the IT and Cyber-Security field for over 40 years. I hold the CISSP certification through ISC2 and that enables me to deliver this training. Again, there is no charge, nothing to buy or anything like that. Purely public service. Ok, in the spirit of full disclosure I do get 1 hour of continuing education for being your host. I am also available to provide this presentation online or in person for other groups so if you need a guest speaker just let me know. The presentation is geared towards adults, but there are other versions geared towards kids and college student age audiences. The presentation takes about an hour and I will then take some questions. If you have any questions in advance, please email me at [email protected] or you can reach me through Scott Sampson.
