Take a shot at something new in Vancouver this weekend

So you’ve biked the seawall, hiked the Chief, and eaten everything on offer at Granville Island Market. But how do you liven up your weekend if you’re tired of dragging your friends out for the usual activities?

Maybe it’s time to try something a little different.

A visit to the DVC Gun Range definitely ticks that box, and is guaranteed to get you and your buddies’ adrenaline pumping. Show up, practice a few times, before you know it you’ve unleashed your inner marksman.

Getting to grips

If you’re a beginner then relax. You don’t need a licence, all you need to do is show up with a valid government-issued photo ID. Once you’re all set up, it’s time try your hand at shooting under the watchful eye of the range’s experts.

This weekend is the perfect opportunity to explore DVC’s newly renovated Port Coquitlam location as the centre gears up for its 3rd annual GLOCK Day. For the first time ever visitors will be able to try out a full line of .223 rifles, from an AR15 to the infamous AK47, all with the guidance of the range’s on site experts. You’ll have the chance to win a party package worth $650 along with exclusive pricing on products, courses, memberships, and even an on-site BBQ.

Safety first

No matter what, you’ll have a blast. But it’s important to remember that safety still comes first. You’ll want to head for an ultra controlled venue like the DVC Indoor Shooting Centre to give both you and your friends an extra piece of mind.

This shooting range gets some major kudos for its safe, controlled environment that makes the difference between fearsome and fun. In fact when it’s not hosting members of the public, DVC serves as a practice facility for military and armoured car personnel, alongside agents from various branches of law enforcement.
