Licence Courses

Firearms Licence

Target shooting or recreational hunting is a sport that can be enjoyed as a group or an individual. You will need to apply for a firearms licence. We can help you to obtain your A & B categories. To obtain this license you will need to complete a firearms safety awareness course and pass the test. 

Juniors are also able to get a Minor’s Permit. A Minor’s Permit is from 12-18 years and you will be required to bring a copy of their birth certificate. 

If you would like to hunt on public land will  be required to pass the R-Licence course. We do not offer the R-Licence however this can be done online via Zoom through many providers. 

Cost: $100

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday at 2pm or Saturdays at 12pm.

*Please note that Saturdays tend to book out quickly, so we recommend booking a few weeks in advance to secure your preferred date. 

Allow 30-60 minutes for the course and test.

No pre study is required although general knowledge of firearms will assist.

Please note that when booking in for a safety test, our team will ask if you:
