How well or good gun ranges be is no used if all the gun ranges don't accept new members. Over here in Canada we having politician wanted to stop us for owning guns and the gun clubs is not helping for allowing more gun members. So very soon gun owners will feel what the point of getting gun licence and owning guns if there is no place to shoot it. The more gun owners the stronger we can stand against politician from destroying our hobby. No point of posting which gun clubs is good or nice..

My club is "Club de Tir Lanaudiere" in Joilette, Que.
It's an all in door range, 12 bays 25 meters long. 4 of the bay's can take rifles up to .308.
Great bunch of people running the place, never very crowded and still looking for new members.

Eastend Gun Club in Eastend SK
It's a hidden gem in the dinosaur country.
He has been a CGN member for three years but that was only his third post, some of us are not as good with the written word as others are.
I think his main point (and a very good one) was that if a range is not accepting new members, that fact should be emphasized when listing it
on this otherwise very helpful thread.

and back on topic....
South West Alberta
Here in Lethbridge we have the Fish and Game range right in town, down in the coulees. www.lfga.org/working/range (Page is down as I write this, but this link worked last week)
Damn fine facility, very clean, and incredibly convenient being right in town.
The problem is, it's right in town and the city is our landlord. So small town politics being what they are we can't have any of the fun stuff. No steel core (Russian surplus, too likely to ricochet out of the range), no binary targets, and we lost the walk-up pistol range (have to stay back at the shack now).
The alternative is the Magrath Rod and Gun Club range, which is about 45 minutes south west of Lethbridge. This one can be a bit messy, as some folks aren't good at cleaning up after themselves, but it's pretty cheep annual fees and all the fun stuff is OK.
Taber has a brand new facility, but I can't comment on it, as I haven't been out there yet. On paper, it looks pretty good.
My low trader rating just means I'm too honest to make my friends vote me up.
