Marine Corps Base Quantico operates 43 live-fire ranges that support
training from small arms to explosive demolitions to artillery fire to the
delivery of live-aerial munitions. As a regional facility, MCBQ is a
critical asset for weapons proficiency training for Marines, the Department
of Defense, federal agencies, and law enforcement organizations.

The impact of noise, vibrations, and/or illuminations experienced across the
area can vary greatly depending on the residential location, atmospheric
conditions, time of day and reductions to naturally occurring sound
barriers.   
 
Because training on Quantico is continuous, residents can expect to always
hear some noise or feel vibrations. Although we strive to provide accurate
daily live-fire operations, please know schedules/live-fire activities can
change due to operational conditions.
