HI Frenchy;The CFO need to approve the type of shooting on a range in Ontario. As to non WB guns, they play in there own category.

You have to do what works in your back yard.

Thanks Vicious,

We'll talk to the NB CFO, and find out what he says.

I'm assuming that since he has approved CAS, WBAS shouln't be an issue. Of course that would be in a logical worl and as we know, this is Canada!  :o

What are some of the things I need to be aware of before getting going.

First, you must contact your insurance carrier and inform them of what you intend to do.  Then, you have to be sure your  incorporation papers accommodate this new activity and protect the leaders..

Up here in the great white north, we just need insurance on the range covering all persons using it, I don't think that we need to get specific insurance for specific activities.

I think! Definitely something to check out.

Hey Tom!

I actually had that conversation with one of my compadres and a lot of what you say is echoed by him.

I guess it's a good thing that winter is here, it'll give us some time to digest and discuss!

Thanks a whole lot for the valuable input from y'all!

I'll keep y'all posted of our progress.

Frenchy

Thanks Guys,

Lots of great advise.

Our range isn't large enough for multiple bays, we usually shoot all matches ( CAS ) in one with minor modifications between stages. It usually works quite well. I'll definitely get to work on getting additional brass pickers Miss Allie, we already have a few but more is better.

I'll keep y'all posted on our development.

Have a merry Christmas all and all the best for 2015.

Hey GJ,

Last August Legendary Lawman ans Serenity held a WB RO course and we have 6 or 7 WBAS RO in our midst, so as far as that goes we're good to go.

Targets, not really an issue! Relaxing rules requirements only makes sense. Maybe have a special categorie.

Anyway that pretty well confirms what I was thinking.

LL and Serenity will help with any other detail that we need to iron out.

Thanks!

Howdy Ladies & Gents,

I want to start a monthly WB match for the spring. We already shoot a monthly CAS match and we have targets and the likes.

What are some of the things I need to be aware of before getting going.

I will be talking to Legendary Lawman and Serenity and enlisting their help, but I thought I would throw it out here and see what y'all have to say!

Thanks

Frenchy

It's official I have my WBAS RO pin.

We held our 1st WBAS match last Friday the the 8th and we had a blast.

We will be making WBAS a regular thing in New Brunswick, Canada.

Frenchy

All went great!

Had a blast the rain held until the shooting was done.

Legendary Lawman beat Serenity by a miss!

It was cool!

Frenchy

Did my WBAS RO Course today with Legendary Lawman and Serenity. Great time, ecxellent folks to work with.

Tomorrow I will RO my 1st WB Match. ;D

Wish me luck.

I bought some Ruger mags to go with my SR1911, took em to the range loaded em all up with 7 each and all worked without a hitch. We'll see what the future brings!
