Got my 22 exemption recently and had the joy of picking up this puppy in the mail. Any pointers for someone new to pistol shooting?

No story, just joined the bctsa and they issued me a letter for it, can give more in depth description if you’re also from bc

I'm unsure what the options even are if your province doesn't have anything like that. Doesn't even seem like we run these kinds of events at all

Every Alberta sub and Canadian sub seems to hate her.

One would think she drinks puppy blood with the way they talk about her

Well that's because essentially every sub is comprised of people too scared to leave massive cities and actually somehow enjoy living in the most polution centric areas. And those kinda of people who love the worst least natural things typically vote NDP and probably are fuled solely off anger and spite

We don’t have night shooting either. AND we’ve got Dougie.
