— Safety Rules

Every participant must complete and sign the Front Line Refinement Participant Agreement, Assumption of Risk, and Liability Waiver before the scheduled session begins.
If you arrive without a completed and signed liability waiver, you will not handle a firearm, enter the firing line, or shoot. No exceptions will be made.
Signing the waiver does not guarantee participation if any other safety, eligibility, or equipment requirement is not satisfied.

Participants must be at least 21 years old.
A valid government-issued photo ID is required.
The name on the identification must match the name on the booking and liability waiver.
Front Line Refinement does not currently provide instruction to minors.

Every participant must be legally permitted to possess and use firearms.
By attending a session, you confirm that no law, court order, criminal conviction, or other restriction prohibits you from possessing or handling a firearm or ammunition.

Participants must bring their own firearm.
Front Line Refinement does not currently rent, lend, or provide firearms.
The firearm must be appropriate for the scheduled 9mm or 5.56 coaching session.
Participants are responsible for ensuring their firearm is lawful, properly maintained, and in safe operating condition.
Known defects, modifications, or prior malfunctions must be disclosed before the session begins.
The coach may inspect a firearm for obvious safety concerns, but this is not a gunsmith inspection or guarantee of mechanical condition.
The coach may prohibit the use of any firearm believed to be unsafe, inappropriate, or incompatible with the lesson.

All live ammunition used during instruction will be provided by Front Line Refinement.
Outside or student-provided ammunition is not permitted.
Ammunition will be selected according to the firearm, lesson, and host range’s requirements.
Participants must accurately identify their firearm’s caliber and chamber markings.
Ammunition remains company property until issued for use during the session.
Unused ammunition remains with Front Line Refinement and has no cash or credit value.
The amount fired may be reduced because of safety concerns, student ability, equipment problems, range conditions, or available instructional time.

Participants may not attend while under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, illegal drugs, or any medication that interferes with judgment, coordination, or safe firearm handling.
The coach may deny or terminate participation if a person appears impaired, excessively fatigued, emotionally distressed, or otherwise unable to participate safely.

Approved eye and hearing protection must be worn whenever required by the coach or host range.
Participants must wear clothing and footwear appropriate for a shooting range. Open-toed shoes, low-cut clothing that may trap hot cartridge cases, or other unsafe clothing may be prohibited.

Treat every firearm as though it is loaded.
Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
Keep their finger outside the trigger guard until instructed to fire and ready to do so.
Know the target and what is around and beyond it.
Handle firearms only when authorized by the coach.
Immediately obey every cease-fire and stop command.
Never leave a firearm unattended.
Immediately report malfunctions, injuries, or unsafe conditions.
Never attempt to repair or clear an unfamiliar malfunction without direction.

The coach determines when firearms may be loaded, handled, fired, unloaded, or removed from the firing line.
Certain exercises will be conducted with one active shooter at a time. Multiple lanes may be used only when the coach determines that the participants, lesson, and range conditions allow it safely.
The coach may return the class to single-shooter operation or stop an exercise at any time.

Horseplay, threatening behavior, arguments, intentional rule violations, and careless firearm handling are prohibited.
The coach may pause or immediately terminate a participant’s session for unsafe behavior, failure to follow instructions, suspected impairment, unsuitable equipment, or any condition that creates an unreasonable risk.

All host-range rules remain in effect during Front Line Refinement sessions. When a host-range rule is more restrictive than a company rule, the host-range rule controls.
Participants may also be required to complete the range’s own waiver or guest-registration documents.

Front Line Refinement provides private firearms and marksmanship coaching. Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, sessions are not Wisconsin CCW-certification courses and do not issue a state-recognized firearm-training credential.

Participants are encouraged to ask questions whenever they are uncertain. Never perform an action with a firearm that you do not understand or feel capable of completing safely.
Every participant shares responsibility for maintaining a safe, respectful, and controlled training environment.
