No firearms licence required!
All non-member bookings are under the direct supervision of a licenced Range Safety Officer
Important Info
Hearing and eye protection provided. Wear sensible footwear and dress appropriately for the weather conditions - the shooting area is sheltered but not fully enclosed. Spectators welcome.
Children welcome but must be under direct supervision of a guardian at all times. PVR does not have a minimum age requirement for shooters. Instructors can advise best practice but minor participation is at the discretion of their guardian.
All booking extras are PER SHOOTER. For bookings including instruction the booking covers 1 shooter receiving instruction at a time. This means if your group wants to take turns to receive the same instruction under one booking you can - provided you've booked enough time and ammunition to share between you.
If your group wishes to receive simultaneous supervision (ie more than one unlicensed visitor shooting at once) you must add 1 booking per shooter as we need to arrange additional instructors on-site. The law requires 1 instructor per unlicensed shooter. If you don't want to shoot simultaneously then 1 booking is fine - just take turns
Please contact us directly to discuss custom arrangements for multiple shooters and larger (3+) group bookings.
Unlicensed visitors must use or relinquish all unused ammunition before leaving PVR.
Please note: NO VISITORS without a booking or prior arrangement (except on open days). Due to our safety obligations as a live-fire shooting range we cannot allow members of the public to enter unannounced. All non-members must meet a Range Safety Officer on arrival, arranged via bookings or by contacting us directly.
Additional extras can be purchased on-site with EFTPOS or cash.
Licence holders can buy ammo on-site.
