PROHIBITED PERSONS

 

AT HORST AND MCCANN, WE WANT EVERYONE'S EXPERIENCE AT OUR RANGE TO BE A PLEASANT ONE. WE WANT EVERYONE TO BE AWARE THAT HANDLING FIREARMS IS AN ACTIVITY RESERVED ONLY FOR FOLKS WHO ARE NOT PROHIBITED PERSONS.

IF YOU CANNOT PURCHASE A HANDGUN LEGALLY, THEN YOU CANNOT FIRE A HANDGUN LEGALLY.

OUR RANGE IS MONITORED BY LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, THE ATF, AND THE FBI. WAIVERS ARE LEGAL DOCUMENTS, AND WHEN YOU COMPLETE ONE, INDICATING THAT YOU ARE NOT PROHIBITED FROM HANDLING OR SHOOTING FIREARMS, OR FROM PURCHASING OR HANDLING AMMUNITION, IT IS TAKEN VERY SERIOUSLY BY THESE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES.

PLEASE DO NOT SHOOT IF YOU ARE A PROHIBITED PERSON. IT WILL ONLY RESULT IN MORE LEGAL TROUBLES FOR YOU.

IF IN DOUBT, CONSULT AN ATTORNEY. FOR MORE INFORMATION, GO TO THIS LINK:

HORST AND MCCANN IS COMMITTED TO MAKING FIREARMS SAFE, FUN, AND ENJOYABLE FOR ALL LAW ABIDING CITIZENS.

FOR THOSE IN DOUBT,

STOP!

AND PLEASE CONSULT WITH A LEGAL PROFESSIONAL BEFORE HANDLING FIREARMS OR AMMUNITION.
