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.  If you would like to learn more, or comment on the impact of training, please visit https://www.quantico.marines.mil/Info/Noise-Advisories/ For additional information about MCBQ, please visit our official website at https://www.quantico.marines.mil
