Range Construction & Temporary Closure Notice
To continue improving our facilities, construction work will be taking place on the club’s ranges over the next several weeks. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as these important upgrades are completed.
Pistol Range
Pistol Range Closure Update
The pistol range will remain closed for at least another month, and realistically, it may be longer.
Before we can reopen the range, we must address the vertical dirt wall issue, which is a safety concern. Correcting this will require heavy equipment and coordination between our contractor and Wildish Construction. Once that work is completed, we will need to schedule final inspections with both the county inspector and a private inspector, and both must provide final approval before the range can reopen.
After the inspections are completed and approval is received, there is still additional work to be done. We need to construct new shooting benches and modify the firing-lane layout and or other safety issues.
While we are hopeful that the work can be completed within a month, that is an optimistic estimate. The actual timeline will depend on the availability of contractors, equipment, volunteers, and the materials needed to complete the work.
We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding while we work to get the pistol range back open safely and properly.
The Pistol Range will be closed beginning Friday, July 24, through the end of September, or until construction is complete.
Temporary Use of Action Range Bays
During construction of the large berm between the Action Range and Rifle Range, Action Range Bays 2 and 3 may be opened for regular pistol shooting when construction activity allows. Availability will depend on the daily dumping schedule.
Action Range Bays 4, 5, and 6 will be reserved exclusively for organized club events, including:
- U.S. Coast Guard Training
- Law Enforcement Training
- Cowboy Action Shooting
- Handgun Safety Classes
- Advanced Shooters Program
No exceptions will be made for the use of Bays 4, 5, and 6 during this period.
Important Safety Notice
Whenever material is being dumped on the large berm during weekdays, all shooting on every range will be suspended until after 5:00 PM to ensure the safety of construction crews and club members.
We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we make these improvements to the Siuslaw Rod & Gun Club. These upgrades will enhance the safety and enjoyment of our ranges for years to come. Please watch for additional updates as construction progresses.
NEW PROCEDURE FOR GUESTS
The club has changed insurance carriers due to the fact that the old carrier no longer insures gun clubs, or firearm related businesses. The new carrier, which is nationally recognized, requires that each time a non-member or guest enters the property where shooting is taking place, they must fill out a liability waiver. A waiver must be filled out for each visit, even if they’ve filled one out on a prior visit.
To implement this policy, the waivers will be placed in distribution boxes on each range, along with a deposit box for the completed forms. Once the form is filled out, including the name of the sponsoring member, place it in the deposit box. A copy of the waiver is enclosed, which may be copied or used, if bringing a guest, but waiver forms will also be available on every range. Waivers will be kept on file for a period of at least a year.
We ask that everyone help to ensure this process is adhered to, as our insurance coverage depends on compliance. If a non-member is found who has not completed the required form, they will be instructed to leave the property immediately, along with the member who brought them. Repeated violations of this policy could affect a member’s membership status. PLEASE DON’T BE THE PERSON WHO PUTS THE CLUB’S INSURANCE IN JEOPARDY.
Another issue which keeps coming up is pets on the club property, particularly dogs. Some members insist on bringing their dogs to the range and letting them roam free. They also don’t clean up after their pets. Members who have stepped in dog poop have complained about this problem and there has also been instances of a dog running downrange on the rifle range while shooting has been going on.
Lane County Ordinances require that dogs be kept on a leash, and that owners clean up after their pets. There are signs around the club reminding members to keep their pets on a leash, but some have been ignoring this. If this continues, then the club will have no choice but to either ban dogs on the shooting areas, or take direct action against the offending members.
The cure for this problem is really simple, either leave your dogs at home, or keep them in your vehicle when coming to the range. If you take your dog out of your vehicle, it must be on a leash and you are required to pick up after it. Like mentioned, it’s a simple cure.
Sincerely, The Board of Directors.

RAPID FIRE ON CLUB RANGES
It has come to our attention that some members using the rifle and pistol ranges are firing at an excessive rate to simulate automatic fire. This is strictly prohibited. Our policy allows only one round per second, as clearly indicated on signs posted at all ranges. Rapid fire is permitted only on the Action Ranges for Cowboy Action, Advanced Shooter Practice, Law Enforcement, and Coast Guard training.
Please follow these rules, as we have nearby neighbors and must ensure all rounds remain on our property. Failure to comply may result in membership revocation. A first offense will receive a warning; a second offense will result in removal from club property.
These rules are in place for everyone’s safety.
