Membership
GENERAL MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS
All Fusilier Complex members must be active NRA members. Your NRA membership number and expiration date must be provided on your Fusilier Complex application. If you are not a member of the NRA, you can include your membership as part of your TFC membership application, or you can sign up with the NRA by clicking on the banner at the bottom of our website. You can also visit www.nra.org, or you can pick up a registration form at most local gun shops or gun shows.
NEW MEMBERSHIP
New members are admitted on a first come, first served basis. The Fusilier Complex executive committee reserves the right to close membership as needed to regulate the number of members in the club. In the event that membership openings are not available at any given time, we recommend that you check back periodically for openings. We will make every reasonable attempt to provide advanced notice of membership openings and registration dates.
New members are required to undergo a background check before being admitted to the Fusilier Complex. This background check is conducted by Global Data Fusion at a cost of $30, payable directly to Global Data Fusion. You will be provided with instructions for completing the background check when that time comes.
New members must pay a one-time $100 initiation fee to join the club, in addition to their regular annual dues. See the Dues schedule below for a breakdown of costs.
NOTICE: You’re allowed to become a new member throughout the year. However, your dues are not pro-rated. ALL yearly renewals are in September.
As a new member of TFC, you will be required to attend a safety orientation session. These classes are held on the first Saturday of each month at 9:00 AM at the shooting range. If you are unable to attend a regularly scheduled safety orientation, you can also request a private class. There may be a charge for private classes to be paid directly to the RSO.
MEMBERSHIP CARDS
New members will receive a membership card by mail after the club secretary confirms that all application requirements and payments have been completed.
GATE ACCESS CARDS
Membership cards serve as range gate access cards, and are issued to new new members who have completed all of the necessary steps for membership. If you are a renewing member, do not dispose of your gate access card as it will continue to work as long as you are a member in good standing of TFC. The cost to replace a lost or damaged card is $50. Do not do anything to alter the physical properties of the card, like punch holes in it, etc.
MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS
Membership renewal packets are mailed out to current members each July. The cost of renewal is $150, and extends membership to August 31st of the following year. Membership renewals can be paid online, mailed in with a check, dropped off at Bayou Teche Guns or delivered to the club secretary the night of the annual membership meeting. Members who do not renew by September 31st will be suspended and must pay a $50 late fee.
