So, I bought a pistol in the EE last week, unaware that the CFO here requires proof of club membership before they'll complete the transfer of ownership.

I've attempted to contact four clubs so far.

One (the AMA), I've sent in an application, which will take 2-3 weeks to process.

Another (Capt. Kidd) have said that to become a member, I'll have to come to their monthly meeting in 5 weeks.

The other two have both failed to respond to my email, and the one that has a phone number posted never seems to answer the phone when I try calling.

What I want to know is - is there a club in the area that I can join quickly and painlessly? The initial reason is obviously to complete the transfer, but I'll obviously need somewhere to shoot as well, so I'd like somewhere that has a decent facility too, ideally that will allow me to fire my .45 handgun, and some long range centrefire rifle target shooting too.

Thanks for any tips anyone has!
 
Join Valhalla Gun Club in Truro, it's $100.00 per year, you can get your membership when you pay your money...

You can go there Monday to Saturday 10am-6pm and get your membership, shoot, and drink coffee... it's all good.
 
Thanks to everyone for the great info.

AMA has the best ranges for me in terms of places I can drive to, and the one in Truro will give me quick membership to sort out my ownership transfer, as well as being a decent alternative to the AMA ranges (if they're booked, or if I just want a change) that's not too far away.

I figure two clubs should give me all the options that I need, without hammering the bank account too much.
 
If you were Yarmouth or Kentville way I would recommend Pubnico or Annapolis Valley shooting club! Good luck in the venture!

AVSSC aka Annapolis Valley would not be a fast option. It takes time to become a full member. There are orientations that must done. This is in an interest of safety for all involved.
 
AJ, to whom did you talk at the Kidd? you could went to meet the directors on a wed night during bow night to drop your application.
