The Handgun Metallic Silhouette Range is run by the Hawaii Metallic Silhouette Shooters Association. They are an IHMSA affiliated club. You may fire .22 rimfire rifles on this range as well as any caliber handgun. The range provides metal targets from 50 meters through 200 meters. It's a great plinking range as here, you can watch your targets go spinning off the stand with each hit. Eye protection is required for shooters and spectators at all times.

What to do

Bring your firearms unloaded and in a case. Check in with the range office and sign in.

Range commands

Periodic cease fires are called whenver targets need to be reset. Range commands are:

• Complete your firing - finish up the ammunition that's already loaded in your firearm

  • Clear and unload your firearm

  • Place it on the bench with the action open and chamber visible from the rear

  • Step behind the yellow line

• Cease fire - do NOT pull the trigger once this command is given. 

  • Clear and unload your firearm immediately

  • Place it on the bench with the action open and chamber visible from the rear

  • Step behind the yellow line

• The line is safe, you may go forward - with your target supplies already in hand, you may tend to your target

  • After you've reset targets, stand behind the yellow line

• The line is hot - you may approach your position, handle firearms and commence firing

Cease Fire may be called at anytime, not only when it is time to change targets.   Anyone may call Cease Fire if they feel there is any unsafe condition
