They're packing heat – and some nosh.

A new Jewish-owned and -operated shooting club is catering to communal safety concerns ahead of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year that begins Monday at sundown.

Plenty of ammo is in the offing — along with bagels and schmear to kick off every session.

"Lox & Loaded was born out of necessity, sadly," said Ian Friedman, a rep for the national member-based club, which has three thriving New York chapters.

Friedman told The Post that Lox & Loaded's national tactical firearms training has quickly become an appetizing option for those seeking safety — specifically around Jewish holidays and generally since Hamas' devastating Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel that launched the ongoing war in Gaza and a relentless stream of antisemitism across the country and globe.
