Hunter Education

The Quantico Rod & Gun Club supports the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries by providing facilities free of charge for conducting Hunter Education classes.  Many of the class instructors, all certified by VDGIF, are also Rod and Gun Club members.  In addition, Hunter Education classes are also taught at other locations on base. 

Potential students are advised to watch this short video before registering for class.

Hunting aboard MCB Quantico requires adherence to Marine Corps orders and bulletins.  The hunting program is managed by the Fish, Wildlife, and Agronomy Section of the Natural Environmental Affairs Branch.  Check out their web pages for more details.  The Hunter Education classes described on this page are required for all new hunters in Virginia and successful completion will result in the issuance of the certificate of completion necessary to get a hunting license in Virginia.  Additional safety lectures are required for hunters new to MCB Quantico.  See the Fish, Wildlife, and Agronomy Section for details.
