Misc Opinions on burlington rifle and revolver club?

Hi everyone!

Now that I have my PAL, I was looking for a range to join. I stumbled across this club, and they seem to have pretty good services offered, as well as a fair price.

I've heard alot of mixed opinions about them, some say they're excellent and not really busy. Whereas some say they're always busy with the disciplines etc.

Does anyone have any experience with this range, and do you think it's worth it to apply there?

One of the big reasons I like this place, is because they offer the ability to bring guests, and they don't limit how many times you can bring that specific guest (to my knowledge). For example, I seen Gagnon had a limit until the guest would be required to purchase a membership.

This is pretty important to me, since I have a friend near there, that doesn't have a PAL, but loves to shoot guns, and we'd love to have some really good memories over there.

Thank you so much for your time!

Makes sense. It sounds like a decent club, but I might keep it on the backburner for now, and see if there are any other clubs that could maybe compare to it

The one thing to keep in mind is they are expanding and building a new facility on top of the existing underground range. So they'll have more ports and likely more room for people to shoot while disciplines are going on.

It's also a club I'm confidant won't be going anywhere anytime soon barring Liberal policy changes.

They're not doing that expansion anymore btw. One of the higher ups told me last year after the Liberals won the election. Election results cancelled that plan or have put it on a long hiatus.

The club will still be around as long as enough younger members are replacing the aging boomers though or unless the city of Burlington decides otherwise.

When I did my membership course a couple of weeks ago they were saying it’s before the town of Burlington for approval with an ETA of 2027
