three things you will learn in level 1
#1 Gun Safety
As an AR*chitect, it all starts with Gun Safety. Check out this video from Jim for some quick Gun Safety tips you can share with that friend who thinks he’s your life coach. While you’re at it, take a Gun Safety class at your local range and join the AR*chitect Facebook Group!

Check out this video from Jim for the PPE that’ll keep you and those around you safe!
#3 Range Protocol
If you’re gonna play the game, you ‘gotta know the rules. We are talking range protocol. If you want to be the most unpopular person at the range and get humiliated by the range officer, or even asked to leave, stop reading now.
Check out this video from Jim to prepare for a humiliation-free day at the range.
