Camp Wisdom Cub World Fort   (under development)

This page should help you understand the operation of the BB gun range in the fort.

Before the scouts arrive:

  1. Get the guns, BBs and Flag from the ranger.  You may have to meet the ranger at the armory.
  2. Make sure the guns are working properly.
  3. Place one on the ledge in each of the window.
  4. Once the gun has been placed in the window, the muzzle should stay out side until all shooting for the day has been completed.

Range Operation:

  1. Bring the scouts into the briefing area for their safety briefing.
  2. Make sure they know that they can not touch the guns until they are told to.
  3. In a line they go into the range and stand against the rail which is the ready line.
  4. Allow them to move up to the shooting positions on the firing line, but do not allow them to touch the guns.
  5. Last minute safety and Range commands.
  6. Cease Fire.
  7. Insure that the range is safe.
  8. Allow the scouts to proceed in a line, out the door to pick up their targets.
  9. Scouts come back into the fort through the other door and exit the range..

After Shooting Activities are complete:

  1. Make sure the guns are unloaded and it is not cocked.  The guns should be stored with the spring NOT compressed.
  2. Make sure the safety is on.
  3. Return them to the ranger;
