Henry Ranges

Henry Rifle Range

50 Yard Multi Purpose Range

The initial planning and construction details were initiated by Henry Range Committee Chairman John Wilson. The construction of the project was carried out and completed by Henry Range volunteer members over a five year period. Special mention goes to club member Kevin Kivela for his contribution of free earth moving equipment time and labour towards this project.

The range is open to the use of handguns, rim fire and centre fire rifles up to but not including 50 caliber, black powder rifles and pistols and shotguns (Bird Shot Only). No clay target shooting allowed

Range Access

  • Rifle range access is acquired by the purchasing of a membership. After that is obtained, you must purchase a key for $35 for the calendar year (Jan 1st-Dec 31st) that will give you access to all ranges.
  • New PQFG members requesting a key for the Henry Range gate access need to be sponsored by a Henry Range key holder or the Care Taker and produce a valid PAL.
  • New range users must receive a range orientation from the the Care Taker.
  • For those members that purchase a key, non-member guests may accompany them and are required to purchase a day range pass for $20.
  • A day range pass for members without the range access key is $10.00. Members can gain access to the range by seeing the caretaker or by a member on site allowing access. A member must have a membership card to produce.
