Any ammunition purchased or obtained from the Company will only be used at the Company's ranges.
11. Company's Right to refuse. I understand that failure on my part to abide by any of the requirements outlined above may result in their immediate expulsion from the Range, and in their temporary or permanent loss of Range privileges. Additionally, Company management reserves the right to refuse any person access to the Facility if it is determined at the sole discretion of Company management that I pose a potential safety risk to others or may cause damage to the Facility.
12. Acknowledgement of Lead and Noise Hazard exposure. I understand that the shooting facilities located at Delta Arsenal are areas with high concentrations of lead particulate contamination. This comes in the form of airborne particulate and surface contamination. Lead is a hazardous heavy metal that enters the blood stream. High blood lead levels are detrimental to the human body and can cause serious health issues. Delta Arsenal takes extreme measures above the industry standard to ensure. our facility is as least contaminated as possible. However, there will always be a residual amount oflead related through shooting, due to cartridge primer ignition and lead core bullets. Delta Arsenal uses water fall style backstops and industry leading air filtration systems to remove as much lead particulate from the air as possible. The range is vacuumed, cleaned and maintained with special equipment to remove lead from all surfaces. All customers are highly encouraged to clean their hands prior to leaving our facility with lead and heavy metal removing soap available in all our bathrooms throughout the building. In addition to the lead hazard customers are willingly and knowingly exposing themselves to, they are also being exposed to the hazards of high decibel noise. These high decibel sounds produced by gun shots can damage the human auditory system if proper protection is not worn. Any customer who is pregnant should not under any circumstances use our shooting ranges. Lead exposure to pregnant women is known to cause birth defects. In addition, the shock of the high decibel sound waves has an increased effect while travelling through the amniotic fluid and will damage an unborn child's organs. All customers should also be aware that lead levels effect children at lower levels in a much more damaging and irreversible way.
Children whom are exposed to high levels of lead can form permanent learning disabilities, have growth inhibited and other serious health conditions. Exposure to high lead levels should be taken extremely seriously. Cleanliness and cross contamination should always be kept in mind and every step should be taken to reduce the amount of lead brought home. By initialing above, I acknowledge the information contained herein and recognize I am exposing myself to higher than normal levels of lead and noise, and that I may unknowingly transfer lead particulate obtained from the shooting facility at Delta Arsenal.
13. Rental Agreement. I understand that if I rent a firearm for range use at Delta Arsenal LLC, I will be held completely responsible fiscally and legally if the firearm is damaged, stolen, lost, has been intentional misused, or if it has been intentionally or recklessly altered from the state in which it was issued to me. (condition before and after rental to be determined by Delta Arsenal LLC staff).
Where my initials appear above, I acknowledge that I have read, understood, and agreed to the provision beside those initials. In addition, my signature below indicates that I have read this entire Agreement, understand it completely, and agree to be bound by its terms. If this Agreement is being executed by me as a legal guardian on behalf of a person under the age of 18 years, then all provisions of this Agreement shall pertain to the undersigned and the Minor.
