ANSWER: In the
Guide to Safe Scouting, it states that
all rifle shooting activities must be supervised by a currently NRA
-certified Rifle Instructor and when on the range, must be supervised by
a currently NRA-certified Range Safety Officer.
ANSWER: First you should contact your
shooting sports district liaison, if your district has one and ask them
for the names of instructors in your district. If your district
does not have a liaison, ask your District Commissioner or OA Advisor.
