| Range Safety Officers (RSO's) are
certified by the NRA do the multiple tasks involved in operating a range
on a day to day basis. On the firing line, RSO's provide direct
supervision to ensure that shooter's follow range regulations, which are
designed to prevent possible property damage and personal injury. In
general, RSO's have range management authority and responsibility to
enforce ALL of the range rules and regulations.
Many organizations require that an RSO be
present at any of their shooting events. Many insurance companies require
RSO's or will give reduced rates to the ranges requiring RSO's.
Chief Range Safety Officers (CRSO's), an NRA
Instructor level classification, are certified to train and certify RSO's.
CRSO's are also able to add additional venues to their certification
abilities. To become a CRSO, a candidate must complete Basic Instructor
Training (BIT), or be a current NRA Instructor, as well as successfully
complete an RSO Class.
