It has been an awesome year, with many families bringing out three to four youth to join in our Monday evening shoots. We have been joined by many community youth groups throughout the year, either working towards badges or just part of their program. Our largest attendance was from a local church youth group where [...]
2015 was a busy year, for the ATS group. Numbers were a consistent 8-12 shooters per practice, with the new and repaired steel target arrays allowing a lot more trigger time on the platforms. The steel is also far more forgiving in the inclement weather, ‘cause “if it ain’t rainin’, it ain’t trainin’…” The ATS [...]
Had 15 people out. It was breezy, targets had some movement. Ron Edward Trap Club
This relatively small group completed the IPSC TC last weekend. There were 3 shooters in the class using a 2 CZ Shadows, 1 SW M&P all in 9mm Luger. All right handers and one reloader. He is a long time, and successful, F-Class rifle shooter. This pistol shooting thing challenged him and he took it [...]
Another keen group completed the IPSC TC last weekend. There were 5 shooters in the class using a 2 Glocks in .9mm Luger, 2 SW M&P in 9mm and a Beretta 92FS clone of some type. No, I didn’t get the name;) All but one were right handers and no reloaders. If they want to [...]
This course was a bit different as it was held over 2 consecutive weekends. Club activity and Valentine’s Day dictated this schedule. There were 4 shooters in the class using a CZ SP01, 1 Glock in .40SW, the other in 9mm Luger but w/b Standard as he had added some accessories not allowed in Prod [...]

This months ATS, Sunday, 28 Feb; Pistol/ Carbine/ Shotgun; bring the standard 250 rounds per platform. The usual [...]
For those members and friends who want to get their IPSC certification for using a holster, recognized EVERYWHERE, or get ready to shoot the 2016 IPSC season, this course is for you. There are many Qualifiers in Metro Van this year including the Provincials on the Labour Day Weekend. There are also many matches outside [...]
Here we go! Hopefully everyone has been practicing this winter as the 2016 season is upon us! If not, let's shake off some of that rust (us, not the guns…..hopefully!) with a practice on March 5th starting at 10:00am and ending around 2:00pm. Practice fees are $20 for members and $25 for non members. We can [...]
Had about 16 shooters out. It was moist but clear at about 11:00 am. Next shoot is February 21st. Thanks to Sonny Braim, Al Fadden, Jim Winthrop, Ron Edward. The re-supply of targets is done.
We have a preliminary budget approval for purchases of additional 22 left handed rifles that can be used by the 22 Club. However, after contacting many suppliers and doing research in depth, YUCK! Talking with Peter at Rusty Woods in Mission, if we re-sight a rifle that is not made to accept peep sights, it [...]
Sunday 24 Jan saw 6 shooters out, with a full steel array for drills. Feedback was very positive, though the drills run need some tweaking, to allow for the decrease in time wasted taping targets! The first CQB shoot of the year, with a new course of fire, was a resounding success. 40 shooters out, [...]
