The PSNI now require the 30/40 form for club approval for variation or renewal of a firearms certificate be replaced with a 30/40(a) form which requires proof of the number of times and in which discipline each firearm already possessed has been used in the past 12 months.
It is the individuals responsibility to attend the club the required number of time per year to be able to log the use of each of the firearms and the disciplines that were shot with them in the attendance register.
Remember, if you don't use them you lose them.

The club moved to it's new premises at Ballyconnelly Road in 2003. The current facilities there include a temporary clubroom with cooker and sink, a toilet and a storeroom. The range is passed for air pistol, air rifle, rimfire and centrefire pistols, rimfire rifles and pistol calibre rifles. The shooting disciplines include UIT standard pistol, target rifle, sporting rifle and practical pistol shooting.


The current ranges include a 4 lane 10M indoor air pistol range, a 25M oudoor pistol range with 10 covered firing points, a 50M outdoor rifle range with 10 covered firing points and two practical pistol ranges. We also have an arrangement with the MOD for authorised members to use fullbore rifles on the military ranges at Ballykinler and Magilligan.


Work has begun on a new clubhouse with kitchen, toilets, clubroom and a 25M indoor range. When this is complete the temporary clubroom will become a covered area for the practical pistol shooters.
