Hey folks I have been using the forum here for about a month now so I thought I would officially say hello. I live on Vancouver Island in Mill Bay so I believe there is a good range on the Malahat I need to go look at. My PAL should be arriving any day and I am studying the RFSC book at the moment and hope to get my RAPL soon. (Hopefully I can take it at the range near by) Merry Christmas

Patrick,

Hi Patrickshot,

Welcome on board.
Don't forget to check out the range at Cowichan Fish and Game in Glenora, Duncan.
We also run the CFC courses. Next RPAL is scheduled for January 22nd.

Welcome aboard Patrick.
If you head into Vic anytime, stop by Island Outfitters, in their gun shop will be a list of people that offer courses and test challenges.
Or you could call them.

skip Victoria, go to the Glenora range mentioned above and see Tom the caretaker for all you needs. Very relaxed atmosphere without the BS.

welcome aboard

Hi from me as well. As for "no BS", I guess a certain amount of BS comes along with having a 1400 member range (Malahat) one can join instantly by paying $90 at a sporting goods store. I gather from the newsletter that there is a lot of internal stuff going on at Vic Fish and Game - but one thing about it, you can follow pretty much any discipline there. Now if only N. Saanich allowed shotgun fun...
