GTA has tons. Toronto proper I think may be at zero.Seems there aren't really any ranges in the GTA anymore, right?
Now, any of the gta ones i know have waiting lists and entrance rules.

Friend of mine has a 1942 Mosin (and a few other arms now). Had the chance to shoot it on Crown Land last summer - was quite intimidated by it, but we went out again a few weeks back, and I had an absolute blast (pun not intended), despite knee high snow and -25 all day long. Something so cool about trying out the rifle that my great grandparents fought with - really visceral experience with the bolt action and recoil and everything.
Bit the bullet and signed up for my CFSC, which is at the end of June. I hear wait times are insane for getting your PAL, so I am not expecting to get my license until 2023 or end of 2022, but nevertheless I am now constantly researching these things and looking for a decent example that isn't too pitted so I can do some meaningful target shooting with it.
Seems there aren't really any ranges in the GTA anymore, right? I feel like I'll just end up going out with friends when they are driving up north to Crown Land. Would be cool to have a local option, but alas. Hunting is something I want to try sometime too - though reading about field dressing made me realize I have a long way to go until I have either the experience or stomach to do it, and do it safely.
My old high school in Port Perry had a range in the basement. And a Cadet Corp. We used to shoot converted Enfeilds down there.

it is scary black and all special ops looking? can I borrow for the convoy ride?
Hold my beer.Is it the way the photo was taken or does the barrel on that gun look cockeyed ? Either way I’m not shooting that thing unless it’s bolted down and I’m on a 10 ft string .
See there is a clear case that gun has one job , and it’s not rabbit shooting , that guys needs to be in jail for a while .

Slide's back, barrel is loose. It all locks up when slide is forward.Is it the way the photo was taken or does the barrel on that gun look cockeyed ? Either way I’m not shooting that thing unless it’s bolted down and I’m on a 10 ft string .

I went to RH King high school in Scarborough.It’s turning a 100 years old this year. I heard from an old timer that they use to have a marksmanship club and indoor range there years ago. He said it wasn’t uncommon for members to carry their old Enfield rifles on the bus to school. Fun fact, Robbie Robertson from The Band also went there in 1959-60 I think.My old high school in Port Perry had a range in the basement. And a Cadet Corp.

strained my wrist scooping leftovers out of a pot yesterday.
Is that a prop or for real?
It looks more like art. Not sure if it could physically fire. From tip of bullet to venting is only ~1". The bullet is obviously long so that gives you a few inches of travel under pressure but you are making a lot of bang and not that much go.Is that a prop or for real?
