Firearms Safety Course

Mareeba Rifle Club, a prominent Target Shooting club in Mareeba Shire, is excited to announce an upcoming event that will surely capture the interest of passionate players. We are thrilled to present a local Target Shooting event that is bound to leave participants with an adrenaline rush and a sense of camaraderie.

The event aims to cater to both experienced shooters and those who are looking to dip their toes into the world of Target Shooting. We believe in promoting a safe and responsible approach to this exhilarating sport, which is why we encourage all participants to have a solid understanding of firearms safety.

To help individuals acquire this vital knowledge, TRAINING SSAA (Qld.) Inc. offers a comprehensive Firearms Safety Course. This course, approved under the esteemed Course #11029NAT, must be successfully completed within 12 months before lodging a Queensland Firearms Licence application.

The Firearms Safety Course is designed to equip participants with the necessary knowledge, attitude, and behaviour to handle firearms safely, responsibly, and within the confines of the law. The course covers a wide range of crucial topics, including the technology behind firearms and ammunition, proper handling techniques, legal and social responsibilities of shooters, and practical shooting skills.

It is important to note that the course fulfils the licensing requirements for Category A & B firearms. However, if you are interested in exploring Categories C, D, and H, training can also be provided upon request. We strongly believe in empowering our shooters with the skills and understanding they need to fully engage in their chosen category.

For those seeking further information or clarification, we encourage you to contact your local Mareeba Rifle Club Branch. Alternatively, you can reach out to the SSAA directly, and their dedicated team will be more than happy to assist.

In conclusion, Mareeba Rifle Club warmly invites both seasoned marksmen and newcomers alike to participate in this thrilling Target Shooting event. Remember, safety and responsibility lie at the core of what we do, so let's come together, aim high, and celebrate the sport that brings us all together.
