    Gun clubs in the lower mainland?

    Hi, I finally got my license in the mail recently, and I've started looking around for a good gun club in BC to join. I live in Richmond, and already know about the Port Coquitlam, Langley and Mission ranges, are there any others around that I may not be aware of? I'm looking for centrefire rifle and handgun ranges, it'd be cool if they also did IPSC, IDPA or somesuch as I'm interested in getting into that. Also newbie-friendliness is also a plus. Anyway thanks if you can point me in the right direction.

    First of welcome, here are a couple others that maybe worth taking a look at.

    Thompson Mountain by pitt lake
    Abbotsford Fish & Game
    Squamish

    Unless you are acting like a tool most if not all ranges are newbie friendly.

    Theres also clubs like Silvercore that isnt a range but it will allow you to get your ATT for your restricted. It is also much cheaper than the Ranges however you do need to pay drop in fees at whatever range you do chose. So if you plan on going much more than about 10 times a year it is probably more cost effective to just get a membership at one of the ranges mentioned.

    $90.00 for a year membership, $10.00 for a guest, you can shoot handgun and rifle up to .50cal (not inluding .50 cal rifle) also have an indoor range for pistol although i dont use the indoor range. great bunch of guys and never crowded. Memberships are available.

    Check out DVC. It's pistols only, (and .22 LR rifles) but indoor shooting during the winter time is a great thing.

    I prefer the PoCo club, but I've also shot at Langley.

    33% off annual membership price until the end of this month, too. I couldn't pass up joining at that price.
