There has been an uptick on the number of shooters coming out to practice on Sundays. It’s good to see people getting back into the sport after winter. AFGC IPSC Team Jerseys are being ordered to qualifying members and they should be ready for the start of the season. A special thanks to the following [...]
After a few weeks off during the holidays we are back holding practices on Sundays on the indoor range. We have some new equipment that has been purchased that includes swingers and activators. This should really help us improve our skills with these movers, including a Holy Monkey. What is a Holy Monkey, you [...]
There are only a couple practices left before we break for the holidays. Last practices will be on Sunday Dec 10th & 17th, if enough people are interested. We’ll be back after the new year on January 7th. Have a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year! Geoff Fraser IPSC Subclub Director [...]
We have now moved IPSC Practices to the indoor range on Sunday afternoons. This seems to be a more popular time for members as many of them come from out of town and driving in the rain and dark was a hindrance. IPSC BC match dates should be announced soon. Keep an eye on [...]
The amnesty order that was set to expire at the end of October for our AR-15’s etc. has been extended until October 25, 2025. Just after the next Federal election. This Amnesty Order encompasses the firearms banned by the May 1, 2020 Order in Council. Hopefully this is good news for the shooting community. [...]
The IPSC BC Provincials were held over the long weekend at the beginning of September in Nanaimo.

Despite all the challenges we’re seeing [...]
IPSC Practices are going well on Thursday evenings. We have a good turnout of 10-14 people each week. Thank you to everyone who comes out and makes stage setup and teardown fast. The IPSC match season is now in full swing with matches across BC almost every weekend. Abby members continue to rank high in [...]
The blue barrels for IPSC were picked up and delivered by myself and Rob, they are going to be a huge help for stage design. I have devised a way to stack them safely two-high by using rubber bungee cords. This seems to work really well in our testing and they are easily detachable [...]
As the weather is starting to get better and IPSC matches are going to be on the weekends, we will be moving our weekly practices to Range 4 starting on May 11th. Quite a few members have offered to donate some blue barrels to the club to replace the ones that are all shot [...]

We could use 20-30 of them.If you have, or work for a business that needs to get rid of these (preferably non-toxic), please contact the IPSC [...]
