During the first three months of membership, new members shoot under the supervision of an authorised Range Officer and are limited to using a .22 pistol or an air pistol for safety reasons.

Many members purchase their own pistols as they become more interested in different matches. For your first purchase you are advised to purchase a .22 calibre pistol or a .177 air pistol and you are able to do this once you have been licensed for 6 months.

Shooting is a family sport and partners and juniors pay a reduced annual fee each year. Members' children can join from the age of twelve and can compete in air pistol and .22 calibre matches. Juniors must be accompanied at all times by a parent or guardian who is also a member of the club.
