1 North Texas Shooters Association Pistol Safety Briefing & Match Rules Safety Rules - These rules apply to the pistol matches held at the NTSA range. Some of these rules may seem to be excessively restrictive when compared to other ranges, or to the specialized training that the shooter may have had in the past. However, they are required at the NTSA to maximize safety and minimize the possibility of a round exiting the range. If this type of incident were to happen, it is likely that the pistol matches would be discontinued. 1. This match will be conducted using a "cold range." All firearms shall be unloaded and remain holstered or cased at all times, until directed otherwise by a Safety Officer (SO). All gun handling will be done on the firing line or in the designated safe area. A Shooter may load rounds into magazines at any appropriate time but shall not load magazines into the pistol until the shooter is on the firing line and is instructed to load and make ready by the Safety Officer. If a shooter brings his or her firearm to the firing line unholstered and/or loaded, the shooter will be disqualified. 2. The muzzle of a loaded firearm must always be pointed down range at or slightly below the berm. Do not point your muzzle in the air or at the ground close to you. Keep it parallel to the ground so an unintentional discharge will impact into the berm and remain inside the range. The SO will call Muzzle if a shooter is pointing his or her firearm in an unsafe direction. On the third time that a shooter is told Muzzle during a match, he or she will be disqualified. 3. Unless the shooter is actually firing at target(s), the manual safety shall be ON when the firearm is loaded. The shooter s finger must be outside the trigger guard and off of the trigger until the shooter is aimed in at the target and ready to shoot. When a shooter is required to move from one firing point to another during a stage, before moving, the safety shall be ON, the finger outside the trigger guard, and the muzzle pointed down range towards the targets and the berm unless the stage involves shooting on the move. The SO will call Finger if a shooter has his or her finger inside the trigger guard while moving but not firing. On the third time that a shooter is told Finger during a match, he or she will be disqualified. 4. The shooter must know where your muzzle is pointed at all times and not violate the 180 degree rule. For example, while facing the target(s), the shooter must not point the muzzle beyond 90 degrees either left or right side of the target(s). If at any time, the shooter violates the 180 degree rule, he or she will be disqualified. Likewise, if the shooter discharges a firearm in an unsafe direction, he or she will be disqualified.

2 5. All shooters must know where their rounds are impacting. In other words, know your background and do not fire if there is an unsafe condition. Be aware of the possibility of shooters down range. 6. Any person that observes an unsafe condition shall yell Stop. The shooter will immediately stop, engage the safety, and point the muzzle down range. The SO will investigate and resolve the unsafe condition. 7. All shooters are required to wear eye and ear protection as well as a hat or cap with the brim facing forward. This is required because of the likelihood that shooters will be hit by falling shot when on the range out from under the metal roofs. General Procedures Upon Arrival at Range: 1. Sign-in a. Complete Range Day Sign-In Sheet b. Complete NTSA Rifle/Pistol Match Sign-In Sheet i. Printed Name ii. Signature Note that you are agreeing to the Waiver Release form on the back. iii. Indicate Member Y/N 1. Member number c. Find match director or club representative to pay fee i. Members $10.00 ii. Non-Member $20.00 Do not enter an amount on the sheet. Persons taking your money will do this. 2. Complete a Match Score Sheet a. Enter you name b. Circle Division (see General Equipment Rules below) c. Indicate your Classification if you have an IDPA classification General Equipment Rules 1. The firearm must comply with federal, state, and local laws. If any part, configuration, etc. is illegal, then the entire firearm is illegal and is banned from the match. The intentional violation of this rule may lead to the violator being banned from any further competition or involvement with NTSA.

3 2. Firearms capable of automatic fire are subject to General Equipment Rule 1 and shall be used in semi-automatic mode ONLY. 3. Trigger activation devices that allow automatic or burst fire including, but not limited to, "Hellfire" and "Tri-Burst" are prohibited. 4. If a shooter has problems with the semi-automatic trigger assembly on his or her firearm and it fires more than one shot with each pull of the trigger, the shooter will immediately cease firing that firearm. The shooter will be allowed to use another firearm in that situation, but he or she will not be allowed to use that firearm again unless the problem is resolved. 5. No restrictions are placed on the position or type of carrying devices for magazines or ammunition, but all equipment may have to pass a standard retention test. Magazines and spare ammo must start in some form of carrier (pockets are allowed). They may not be held in the teeth, hand(s), under arms or between legs, etc. They may not be stowed (dumped) down a shirt or undershirt. Match Rules 1. Shooters are expected to remain near, but behind the firing line, and to help tape or reset targets while not actually shooting or preparing to shoot. To allow the match to progress more quickly, the following tasks should be performed: Shooter on deck prepare to shoot the course of fire, but do not load your firearm until commanded to do so; Shooter in the hole tape and or set/up targets. Shooters who are not preparing to shoot should pick up brass and assist with taping the targets. 2. Range Commands: Understand the Course of Fire The shooter is asked if he/she understands the course of fire and may ask any questions to clarify understanding or indicate the he/she does. "Load and Make Ready" - On command, the shooter will face downrange, unholster or uncase his weapon, load the magazine into the magazine well, load the chamber, place the safety ON and re-holster. The shooter will then assume the required position the stage dictates. "Shooter Ready?" - The shooter will nod or otherwise clearly indicate that he or she is ready to begin the course of fire. "Stand By" - The shooter will remain stationary until the start signal indicates that he or she should begin the course of fire. The start signal will normally be the buzzer or beep

4 of the shot timer controlled by the Safety Officer, but other audible or visual start signals may be used at the discretion of the match director. "Unload and Show Clear" - Upon completion of the course of fire, the shooter will remain stationary with the muzzle pointed in a safe direction downrange, unload the firearm and lock or hold open the action to allow the Safety Officer to inspect the chamber. Slide Forward/Hammer Down/Holster - On the Safety Officer's command, the slide will be released, hammer lowered on empty chamber and re-holster the firearm. The SO will announce that the range is safe to go forward and score/tape the targets. Range is Safe - Command stating that the shooter has holstered his pistol and it is safe to proceed downrange to score and tape. The commands listed below were discussed above under Safety Instructions, but are again provided for emphasis. Muzzle Command given to the shooter to move his muzzle within the muzzle safe points. SO s may need to physically push the shooter s arms to move the muzzle downrange if the shooter does not comply immediately. Finger - Command given to the shooter to remove his finger from the trigger guard. Cover Command given to the shooter for improper use of cover. Stop Command given to the shooter to stop all shooting and movement. 3. The standard start position will be with the firearm holstered, unless otherwise specified by the Match Director. Hands must be off of the firearm preferable in a neutral position such as at the side. 4. Stages may have loaded or unloaded starts. In an unloaded start, the shooter must not be touching their firearm, magazines, or ammo loading devices. An "unloaded start" means the chamber is empty of any ammunition, action open and the safety ON. 5. Each shooter is required to shoot the course of fire as described by the Match Director. A failure to shoot the course as instructed will result in a three (3) second Procedural penalty. If the shooter intentionally tries to circumvent the course instructions to gain a competitive advantage, he or she will be given a Failure to Do Right penalty of 20 seconds. 6. If a shooter hits a hostage or no shoot target, the shooter will receive a 5 second penalty. Each hostage hit can only be penalized once. In other words, if there are multiple hits on a hostage target, only one penalty is recorded on the score sheet. Shots that go through the hostage and hit the intended target are counted as hits on the intended

5 target and scored accordingly. Hostage or No shoot targets may be indicated with open hands painted on the target or X s painted on the target. 7. Targets may have portions of the target painted black which restrict the area available for score. These are called hard targets or hard cover and are used to indicate a target behind hard cover. A hit in the blackened areas is a miss. 8. If a shooter's firearm becomes unserviceable during the match, a similar firearm may be substituted at the discretion of the Match Director. 9. If a shooter's firearm malfunctions, the shooter may clear the malfunction and continue or, if the malfunction cannot be cleared, may elect to re-shoot the stage. One reshoot per shooter per match will be allowed, at the discretion of the Match Director. 10. Shooters will use cover as much as possible and if provided. You are required to have 50% of your body behind cover. If the SO calls cover, immediately move behind cover. If the SO calls cover three times in a match you will receive a three (3) second penalty for that stage as well as each time the SO calls cover after that stage. 11. Target Engagement Order If shooting from a barricade, barrel, or other covered position, the shooter will engage targets using Barricade Order or Slicing the Pie. Barricade order is engaging the first target you see as you edge around a barricade from a fully covered position. If you are shooting from the right side of a barricade, you shoot the first target you see on the right and work inward. Likewise, if you are shooting from the left side of the barricade, you would shoot the first target you see on the left and work in. In some courses of fire when you are moving while shooting, you may find that as you move, some targets are covered by no-shoot targets. You may shoot those targets in any order that allows you to engage all targets with the specified number of hits. 12. Emergency and Tactical reloads Emergency reloads occur when you have shot your last round and the bolt carrier locks back. In this case, you may allow the magazine to drop to the ground as you load another magazine. Tactical reloads occur when you have rounds in the magazine, but you are required to load another magazine that theoretically has more rounds in it. In this case, you must retain the partially filled magazine for use another time. If you drop a magazine that has ammunition in it, you will receive a three (3) second penalty. Dropping a magazine or ammunition before the course of fire begins incurs no penalty. 13. Classes - For scoring and classifying purposes, there are divisions depending on the type and configuration of firearm used. a. Custom Defensive Pistol (CDP) -.45ACP semi-automatics only b. Enhanced Service Pistol (ESP) - 9mm (9x19) or larger caliber semi-automatics c. Stock Service Pistol (SSP) - 9mm (9x19) or larger caliber double action, double action only, or safe action semi-automatics d. Enhanced Service Revolver (ESR) -.38 caliber or larger double action revolvers e. Stock Service Revolver (SSR) -.38 caliber or larger double action revolvers

6 f. Backup Gun (BUG) g. Second Gun (SG) Laser sights are prohibited. 14. Upon completion of a course of fire, the SO will note the elapsed time on the timer, call it out to the SO recording the times and hits on the score sheet, and show the timer to the SO. After the firearm is cased, the SO will announce that the range is safe to go forward to score and paste the targets. The SO will call the hits to the scorekeeper and will allow the shooter an opportunity to view the scoring process. Targets will not be taped SO s until the target is scored. The shooter is encouraged to accompany the SO s and observe the scoring process. However, the SO s will not wait for the shooter to pick up brass, etc. to begin scoring. 15. The SO s will do their utmost to officiate the match consistently and fairly, treat each shooter with courtesy and respect, provide the shooter with the benefit of the doubt in the case of hit breaking a scoring ring, and provide the shooter the opportunity to have a safe and positive experience.
