What visitors say
The Vancouver Gun Club in Richmond is a shotgun-only range covering trap, bunker, skeet, 5-stand and sporting clays. It has a strong rating, and reviewers describe the people as friendly and welcoming, even to those arriving with no shotgun experience.
Courses are a big part of what it offers. Reviewers took the Canadian Firearms Safety Course for their PAL and a restricted course here, and describe instructors who were patient, thorough and good at keeping a class engaged. A shotgun fundamentals session walked newcomers through the different shooting stations.
Members help out too. One newcomer said a member took time after class to explain range etiquette and suggest suitable shotguns. Regulars recommend a membership if you'll come often, since it brings target discounts. The club also hosts events such as charity shoots.
A handful of lower ratings sit in the breakdown, but recent written reviews don't point to recurring problems. Walking onto a gun club for the first time can feel intimidating, so a fundamentals course is a good way in.
