    Sadly just another example of the castration police in action. No good or logical reason exists. I'm surprised the black paper silhouettes are not banned at some clubs for being a racist target.

    Pathetic.

    You say nobody needs an AR15? Well nobody needs a whiny little b*tch either yet here you are!

    Sherwood Park Fish and Game is run by Fudds and they prohibit humanoid targets, as has been mentioned. Just a dumb range rule. I'm a member there because it's 15 minutes from my house. At the big bore range I can't even fit my AR or Stevens 305f in the rifle racks because they're too short. Kind of annoying.

    And the first question I get with any short barrelled guns is, "Is that gun legal?" Of course it's legal! Do you really think anyone bring an illegal firearm to a range, especially one that gets used by the local RCMP detachment?

    Sounds like a hostile takeover in regards to management is in order.

    Umm...not just in the US, in Canada too. I do not know of any Law Enf Agency still using black silhouettes - they all changed to blue, in case anyone said the police were being trained to shoot "black people". Absoulutely ridiculous.

    ^^^ problem is the friggin political correctness this crap will be the end of all things

    Edit: just bought 200 9 inch paper plates cause I can feel it coming at my range. I also have 2 inch yellow sticky dots so i'll be good for a while

    For those who want some ( note they aren't good for anything else but shoot at if you're thinking pic-nic )

    It is about 5 minutes north of Taber if my memory serves. We held 2 matches out there and it is an awesome facility (600M , 200M, and a bunch of action bays).

    No silly target rules that I am away of. Also the membership fee is very reasonable so if you can only make if a handful of times it is not that bad.
