No clue, I don't work there. Why not call them and ask? I could be totally wrong but since they are a large company with lots of ranges (read that as deep pockets) I read the rule to mean they don't just let "anyone" teach there without first being checked out. My last post come off pretty jerky- apologies for that, wasn't exactly how I meant it.

No apologies needed. My one-word comment might seem a bit snarky, too. But I won't be calling them since they're too far away for them to be any use to me anyway. I have a bit of a chip on my shoulder, since when I was actively trying to be a CHL instructor, the closest range I could find that would allow outside instructors was a 45 minute drive one-way. For some reason students seemed to balk at driving 90 minutes to take a 20 minute proficiency test.

It also depends on what they deem as "instruction". For example, I shouldn't have to provide my "teaching credentials" to take my granddaughter to the range for some basic handgun instruction/practice. Their rule probably is not targeting that kind of activity, but they could if they wanted to be sticklers about it.

Bleah...

Have you checked to see what that cert. might entail, or are you just put out that a range owner might want to verify that you have teaching credentials before allowing you to use their range as your personal office?

I read that to mean Point Blank employees. Do you/they allow independent LTC Instructors (with the State Certification) to use your facilities for Proficiency Testing? If so, I'll retract my 'Bleah'.
