For beginning a drive, it is necessary to know perfectly the safety requirements which

govern our sport, which is a pledge of safety for us and our entourage and makes that us

will be never the " cow-boys " for whom some try to make us pass.

At the time of a drive, the applicable rules in match must imperatively be complied with, that is to say,

IN THE STAND:

To always keep its weapon in the holster during displacements in the stand

To handle the weapon only in the zones of safety envisaged for this purpose

Never not to handle at the same time or at the same place the weapon and ammunition

To take this practice is a pledge of safety for oneself and the others.

Imperatively to await the commands of the referee before handling his weapon;

the commands are:

holster, to engage a charger, to arm the weapon always pointed in direction with the targets, then there

to give to the holster.
