Is there an age requirement to join the club?
No, but there is an age requirement to be able to participate in classes and some events. For some courses that require students above 18 years, you can have a guardian present to participate in the class.

Do you collect dues?
We are currently trying to keep this free and accessible to all, but there will be some courses that may require small fees at cost (i.e., to go towards renting a classroom, medical supplies, and ammunition).

How often do you have meetings and where?
We plan to have a club meeting once a month, but several different events and range days throughout the month. We currently do not have a specific meeting place, so the location will vary.

Can I come to a meeting before I decide to join?
Yes, of course!

How do I register for the club?
Sign up through our website: https://gallatincommunitygunclub.org/join

Can I bring a friend?
Friends can come to the monthly meeting or a meet & greet event. But if it is a registered event or member-only event, then they are not allowed to attend.

How do you keep your members safe?
We take the privacy of our members very seriously. We ask permission to post photos before posting them to our website, social media and newsletters. When you first join our Discord server, you will get limited access to the channels. You’ll need to sign-up and have met us in person before you get full access to our server.

How do I register for events?
Each event will have a registration webpage where you can sign up. These events will be announced through our newsletter, Discord, and social media.

Do I need to own a firearm?
No, you do not. You do not necessarily need to be in the club specifically for firearms. We have other activities that you can be here for, such as first aid, community, etc.

What if I never shot a firearm before?
We highly recommend that you take some training classes before joining us on Range days.

Am I required to have experience handling a firearm before being allowed to attend scheduled range days?
Yes, this is to ensure the safety of our members and everyone else around. To gain experience, we ask that you take training classes with us or outside the club.
