Firearms

BPSA Fire Arms Members Jan 7th, 2008.

Our club is an active club with approx 54 members. The .22 shooting is usually on Mon & Wed evenings, with big bore firearms on Wed afternoon. We trained several range officers to make sure our members shoot and handle firearms safely, and are available when needed. We have a strict set of rules and safety practices, and have never had any mishaps in regards to firearms and their use. Our members can shoot anytime, providing that a range officer is present. We do not permit jacket rounds and would prefer wad cutters for big bore. Members can bring guests, but a safety officer must run them through a short course before they can shoot. We welcome everyone as long as the rules are followed .We love to share our sport with all people of all ages and walks of life.

We have a competition team that belong to the Western Ont Handgun league and we travel to shoot against other clubs near us. Our competition shooting starts in Oct runs to March. Our shooters have categories of A,B,C,D,E, that they have to qualify for. Improvement sends that shooter to the next highest level for the following year.

Our members have the training of firearms safety events for Law and Security students at Georgian College. We taught them safety and handling of firearms, then we let them shoot our firearms in the range. We teach youth the same thing and they shoot .22 rifles. They have a friendly competition at the end of each shoot for top shooters. Mom usually brings the kids to the range, so we put on a women's shoot for the moms.
Come on out and learn the sport in a safe and controlled environment, it is a blast.
