Full Disclaimer
Range Operations is a service of Falconer Operations Group LLC providing mapping and planning support for outdoor shooting ranges. Work may include safety fan, Surface Danger Zone (SDZ), projectile-containment, shotfall, site-planning, and supporting project records. The following disclaimers apply to all content on rangeoperations.com and to communications outside an accepted written agreement.
Informational Content Only
All written content, illustrations, animations, examples, and educational materials presented on this Site are for general informational and educational purposes only. They do not constitute professional advice for any specific facility, situation, or jurisdiction.
Range Master App
Range Master is an informational, educational, training, and planning aid. It is not a live-fire decision tool. The App displays a generalized reference footprint from published reference dimensions and user-entered information. It is not a factual statement of actual site or ammunition performance, a ballistics calculator, real-world trajectory or impact prediction, shot-placement tool, survey, engineering product, backstop or containment assessment, hunting-safety determination, site approval, or final safety determination.
The App cannot account for every firearm, barrel, load, muzzle angle, slope, terrain feature, weather condition, obstruction, ricochet, equipment issue, person, animal, vehicle, structure, or human action. It does not guarantee where a round will travel, strike, stop, or remain inside a displayed footprint or property. Do not use the App as the sole basis for a shot or any live-fire decision. See the Range Master Terms before using the App.
No Substitute for Professional Services
Site-specific mapping requires accepted source information, a written scope, and a defined intended use. Visual examples, animations, and explanatory content on this website are simplified representations and are not appropriate to use as the basis for designing, modifying, certifying, or operating a live-fire range.
Inherent Risks of Live-Fire Activity
Live-fire activity, range design, range operation, and storage and handling of firearms and ammunition involve serious inherent risks, including risks of death, injury, and property damage. Range owners and operators retain sole responsibility for:
- The safe operation of their facility
- The behavior and qualifications of all personnel and users on their property
- Compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations
- Maintenance of appropriate insurance coverage
- Implementation of any recommendation, in whole or in part, after evaluating its appropriateness for their specific facility
No Warranty
Information on this Site and the Range Master App are provided "as is," "as available," and with all faults, without warranty of any kind to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee that Site information is current, accurate, complete, or applicable to a specific situation, or that the App is error-free, uninterrupted, or fit for a specific site, load, use, or condition. Some rights cannot be disclaimed under applicable law.
No Insurance Guarantee
Engagement of our services does not guarantee projectile containment, permit or grant approval, insurance underwriting, premium adjustment, policy renewal, regulatory acceptance, or any legal outcome. Owners, reviewers, authorities, insurers, and other responsible parties make independent decisions based on factors outside our control.
No Legal or Engineering Advice
We are not a law firm, an insurance broker, or a licensed engineering practice. Nothing on this Site or in our communications outside a signed engagement constitutes legal advice, insurance advice, or licensed engineering services. For legal, insurance, or engineering needs, consult an appropriately licensed professional in your jurisdiction.
External Links
This Site may reference or link to external resources, publications, or websites. We do not endorse and are not responsible for the content or accuracy of any external resource.
Imagery and Illustrations
Safety fan, Surface Danger Zone, shotfall, and example site visualizations on this Site are simplified for educational and demonstrative purposes. They are not to scale, are not specific to any client facility, and are not appropriate for use as range planning, certification, or compliance documentation. Range Master displays are generalized App outputs, not examples of a verified project deliverable. Actual client deliverables are produced only under an accepted written agreement.
