The 5th annual Champlain Collectors' and Sportmens' Gun Show builds on the success of the previous years' shows. Exhibitors and sellers include both businesses and individuals, with special emphasis on hunting and collectible firearms. Attendees are reminded to bring their PAL (Possession and Acquisition License), which remains a requirement for the purchase of any firearm in Canada.
Marstar Canada, Higginson Powders, and the Vankleek Hill Gun Club will all be present and have tables during the show. Be sure to stop by these and other exhibitors' tables.
The Vankleek Hill Gun Club is a non-profit organization wholly dedicated to the operation, maintenance, and promotion of an indoor target shooting range for its members. Its executive committee of unpaid volunteers is elected by its members on a yearly basis.
Club facilities include a heated indoor year-round shooting range for firearms, archery, and airguns, one firing point for centerfire (non-magnum) rifles, and nine firing points for pistol-calibre firearms.
Several events are hosted by the club each year. These are generally informal competitions involving innovative (though some say 'diabolical') targets often made of wood, foam, etc., a BBQ, and a meet-and-greet. Prizes are often available to be won both in the competition and as door prizes.
If you live in Eastern Ontario or Western Quebec and are interested in joining a fun, friendly, and small range situated between Ottawa and Montreal feel free to contact us through Marstar Canada, who will put you in touch with a member of the Club Executive.
