30-Minute Shooting Experience in Brantford — 5.11 Day Shooting Package 2.0

Q: What do I need to bring?

Bring a government-issued photo ID and wear closed-toe shoes and a shirt that covers the chest; paper waivers are available if needed.

At 18 Zatonski Ave. in Brantford, Ontario, the 5.11 Day Shooting Package 2.0 condenses a classic range session into a tight, adrenaline-tinged thirty minutes. Designed for shooters aged 12 and up, this compact experience pairs expert supervision with a curated selection of firearms — a SIG P320 Flux and CZ P10F for modern semi-automatic control, a Mossberg 590 shotgun for raw, close-range punch, and a lever-action Marlin 1895 for a touch of old-school power. The format is simple: ten rounds through each pistol, three shotgun rounds, and a single live round from the Marlin, all under range rules that prioritize safety and clear communication.

Walk in with a government-issued photo ID, complete a waiver, and expect the staff to run a quick safety brief before you step to the lane. The range operates with controlled lanes and engineered backstops to contain rounds and minimize lead and noise exposure; hearing and eye protection are standard. Note the firm policy on intoxicants — appointments are canceled if cannabis or alcohol is detected — so plan a sober visit.

What makes this offering stand out in Brantford’s recreational mix is its focus on an efficient, mentor-led experience that suits beginners and busy locals who want target time without an all-day commitment. The gear list is short but curated to deliver a cross-section of modern duty pistols, defensive shotguns, and classic lever-action rifles; it’s a compact curriculum in handling, trigger control, and recoil management. For parents and guardians, the low minimum age (12) opens a pathway for supervised skills-building for teens while maintaining strict safety controls.

Practical planning tips: arrive early to handle paperwork, wear closed-toe shoes and a shirt that covers the chest to protect against hot brass, and bring a charged phone only for photos outside the firing line. Groups require at least two people — one shooter and at least one paid participant or spectator — so coordinate with a friend for the booking. Pricing is straightforward: CA$79.99 per shooter plus tax for the 30-minute package, with booking handled through the provided referral link.

For visitors, this is a quick, concentrated way to sample different platforms without investing in ammunition or firearm purchases. It’s also a social outing: short rotation times mean you can swap impressions between strings of fire and leave with practical feedback. The meeting point is clear: 18 Zatonski Ave., Brantford, Ontario. If you're curious about controlled, instructor-guided shooting that fits a lunch break or an afternoon stop, this package delivers focused training in a compact, well-managed format. Book early on weekends, expect waits during peak hours, and ask the range team about follow-up lessons or gear rentals if you want to build skills beyond this introductory packet.
