    What are other good options for Ranges in Calgary and area?
    I am also looking at a SIG 226 for my first pistol, welcome any comments.
    I would also be interested if anyone had the time to do some training on shooting.

    I joined the Buffalo Target shooters that uses the Steve Johnson Range that is on 11 st NE just north of 64th. It's an outdoor range but the firing line is covered. I may switch to TSE for the winter, but in the summer I would rather shoot outdoors. The hours are limited to Tues-Thurs 6-9 and Sat & Sun 9-5. I was there yesterday for 2 hours and I had the whole place to myself. Cost was $150/year but it expires Dec 31.

    Thanks for the info, once I have my license I would like to get a membership to an outdoor range as well. Might as well take advantage of the summer outside while we have it.
    What do the Buffalo Target Shooters do as a group?

    last time I checked, the WW did not allow "rifle" rounds....not enough backstop.

    they did have a couple of 9mm Bushmasters for range guns though.

    Hey guys I'm new to guns and I'll soon be a new residence of Fort Mac. I was wondering what Fort Mac has to offer when if comes to firearms. Are there many stores, places to shoot, etc. Thanks for your time guys.
