European short trip recommendations

#1 Post by Charlie J »

Has anyone been to any ranges in Europe that offer shooting various firearms that we are not allowed to shoot in the UK .
Basically would like to go to a range whilst on a three day break to somewhere of interest so thinking Poland , Czech Rep , Hungary or Bulgaria ? etc .
Cheers Chas

You could try Coppens in Knokke Heist in Belgium.
Assuming he is still there.
Easy drive from Calais - about 90 minutes.

I used to shoot here quite a bit but I'm not sure if they'd still allow it without a European Firearms Pass as I used mine to buy a 'day membership' each time.

Good bar and spot on restaurant, about 20 minutes from Brussels.

I can 2nd NITSA if handguns are your primary attraction. Been out there many times and it's always been superbly run and friendly - actually just got back a couple of wks ago after shooting a Beretta 92 (one of my dream guns) and it was as awesome as I'd imagined. I can't remember exactly what they've got in stock at the moment but there's a decent selection: the aforementioned 92, a HK USP, CZ P0-9 (I think Jim mentioned a P-10 too), SP01's, and of course many different Glock models. Revolvers too. Seriously tempted to move over there at this point... It's not just the handguns but the facility itself is very nice with a restaurant, many shooting lanes and regular comps for those that want to do it.
