    Plinking in loon lake, BC

    I got a property up in Loon Lake, near Clinton, BC. Maybe I知 searching for the wrong thing. But can anyone point me to the legality of discharging fire arms on my property?

    If any person willfully discharges or causes to be discharged any firearm upon any public property within 1,000 feet of the property line of any public, private or religious elementary, middle or high school property he shall be guilty of a Class 4 felony, unless he is engaged in lawful hunting.

    Depends on if there’s any discharge bylaws in municipal or regional district regs. All the property along the lake is generally pretty close together, there’s so much crown land past or above the lake on either side though. Head up Hihume or Chasm and find yourself a cutblock or old burn and have at it if there’s a good backstop.

    What is the purpose? I think it will depend on your local regulations or laws but hope that you do not use them for malicious purposes. Know the backstop. Good luck.

    I know when I needed that question answered, I called the municipal and OPP and they both told me the same thing - I was OK as long as my backstop was. I know that this isn't BC, but I'm sure doing this would answer your question. Get the names of the people you talked to on the phone - just in case.....

    I think the locality will take the right measures.
