    Our range has never had an issue. I would ask whoever runs yours though.

    It looks like he is asking if Calgary Shooting center allows surplus ammo on their range.

    Yes we do. We are only concerned about incendiary and tracer ammo. There was just a recent thread about this.

    As far as i knew i thought Tracer ammo was illegal in canada.
    someone correct me if im wrong?
    cuz if im not i WANT SOME!
    shot some tracer in the US and its fun as hell to shoot at dusk or in a wooded area, just have to make sure the area condish isnt dry as hell, cuz that stuff can start fires.

    A couple of years ago, I was able to get my hands on some 7.62x39 Tracer ammo from a gun show. My understanding is that only rounds like Explosive or Flechette are "Prohibited" in Canada. Haven't heard anything regarding Tracer Ammunition.

    As far as i have heard indoor anywhere no outdoor no worries
    Disarming the victims is not gun control
