Their are plenty of grouse north of the city. Get away for a weekend and head north to places like Sudbury, Timmins. North Bay areas. Contact a lodge to see what they have.
 
Hello new to the group here from Kenora ontario! London Ontario is my home town. There's tons of Patridge here all over the road trying to take on cars. Modern day dodo bird haha
 
New to the forum, and I now have my first rifle in Ontario (6.5CM...what else? lol).

Looking for somewhere to site this thing in and practice. I'm just north of Toronto, Ideas welcomed!

Welcome to CGN tr glad to have you aboard, enjoy the site lots to learn, see, and buy. All the best. Pew, pew.

You will be waiting a while, since everything is shut down. Ranges and But this point, the MNRF has not made any decisions to restrict, delay or cancel provincial fishing and hunting seasons or restrict access to Crown land.

However, some municipalities and Conservation Authorities have already restricted access to their lands, and many retailers that usually offer fishing and hunting licences are no longer open to the public.

Below we will be updating a list of closures across the process in an attempt to keep you informed. This list will change daily, so please check back often

Look for accessible Crown land.

Crown land is partially affected although it does not specifically mention hunting "No Camping"

The Ford government is extending Ontario’s emergency declaration until at least April 23, and adding several new measures to ban camping on Crown land and make it easier for hospitals to surge capacity.

...the province has banned camping on Crown land retroactive to April 9.

Hi all!

Just got my PAL. Living in Ottawa. Totally new to firearms.

I have no firearms right now, but planning to buy a 92FS. Maybe a rifle later (if wife approves the budget;-))

Anyone near Ottawa who wants to give some advices on the clubs or ranges near Ottawa?

Thanks

Hi,

Got into this sport a few years back and learnt a lot from this community. Now it's my turn to do some contributions.
If you live in Ottawa area and are interested in this sport but don't know where to start, I would like to help. I can take you to the range on weekends and try some shooting. The only thing I need from you is compliance to all laws, regulations and safety rules.
You need to get yourself hearing and eye protections.

Send me PM and we can work out the time. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm experienced to the sport but fairly new to the area. I'm looking for buddies to go to the range with. I sent you a PM.

Hi all, I'm in Ottawa and have a membership at the EOSC. I'm looking to get a handgun, but don't know anyone who owns one. I've done a bunch of research but everyone says I've got to hold and shoot them to know which is most comfortable for me.

If anyone from the Ottawa area would be willing to take me to their club as a guest or to come to EOSC as my guest and show me their handguns i'd really appreciate it.

I'd be willing to drive out 1.5h in any direction and would pay for the ammo for the day.

Thanks :)

Hi,
This post is old, but I'm also a member at EOSC. If you're interested in a buddy to go shooting with, send me a PM.
Cheers!

titsc.ca really looks good, but my God... $500 initiation fee lol... they're not shy...
 
New to the shooting sports in Ontario. Wondering if anyone had any tips for finding places to shoot? Is asking farmers if I can shoot on their land a thing? Looking at getting a range membership so I can shoot pistols. IPSC seems interesting and I'd like to learn more about that too.
 
I'm new to the forum and been a deer/bear/duck hunter my whole life. In the past few years I got into compound bow hunting in a big way and have too many rifles so hoping to offload a couple. I'm not sure where to post here but figured someone here knows which forum area that'd be best to post a description or two. Cheers hunting peeps!

If your in the GTA I go to Target sports just as an associate member. I don't go as often as I would which makes the low cost membership ideal for me. I find it hard to convince my wife I need to go shoot more. Lol
 
Hey, first time PAL/RPAL owner here! How is shooting at Target Sports as an associate member? I went there several times as a walk in client and had a blast.
 
Hi all! Hailing from Toronto! Super excited to have just received my PAL/RPAL. I have wanted to be a legal gun owner for my entire life. Looking forward to getting a range membership and enjoying a rich history. Any other folks in Toronto here who can share their experience of starting out? Any tips on how you got your first firearm and access to a range to shoot it?

Glad to join the fight against the Bill C-71!

Cheers!
 
Welcome to the sport. I love the handle you gave yourself - the only donut i every eat!!

Target sports is/was good when i was a member. A little loud at times but understandable for an inside range.

I hear a new range opened up somewhere east of Toronto - probably run by the same folks who run FOC (firearms outlet Canada.)

Went to Silverdale, out past Grimsby two weeks ago. It's an outdoor range and I really like it. Seriously thinking of getting a membership but it's a bit of a long drive for me (i'm in vaughan.)

best of luck to you.

Orono Fish & Hunt Club is an outdoor range closer to you, and taking members.
