Great looking range. What calibers are allowed and are there rentals?

Yes, we do have rentals... So far here's the current line up:

-10.5" AR-15, 5.56
-14.5" M4A1, 5.56
-Tavor TAR21, 5.56
-FAMAE SAF, 9mm
-FAMAE Mini SAF, 9mm
-18.5" M14, 7.62
-Remington 870 Tactical Pump, 12GA
-Marlin 336XLR, 30/30
-Glock 17, 9mm
-S&W M&P40, 40S&W
-S&W 629 Classic, 44 Mag
-S&W Model 27, 357 Magnum

The list will continue to evolve and grow but this is our starting point...


Also, with regards to caliber limitations... All types of small arms ammunition is permitted, including steel core. Our backstops are approved and rated for .50 BMG, I doubt we will see any shooters take advantage of that, but if the need arises we will take that on a case by case basis.

Well I shot there today and talked up Derrick and Matt ! The range is awesome to shoot on!!!! I sent 250 rounds down range and couldn't smell the powder burning in the m&p. the ventilation in there kicks ass . Staff took the time to walk us around and show us the amenities and what was yet to be finished ! Hats off to you guys and all the hard work you have put into a world class shooting facility close enough to home to shoot in!!!

I stopped in last night on my way home form work. Purchased my Regular Membership and really looking forward to shooting there! I'll have to build some ammo when I get home and I'll swing in for a bit tonight! Can't wait to see what kind of toys RDSC will be bringing in.

Glad to hear everything is going great. Next time I'm in Edmonton for a few days, I'll swing down to Red Deer and pop in for a visit. :D

I stopped in as well. I was the guy that left his sunglasses on the table while doing the tour, I can't for the life of me remember the staff members names, but they were friendly.

Really considering getting a membership. Its a really awesome range for anyone that is looking for a place to shoot some restricted guns.

Got my membership. Spent about 200 rounds there today. Had a blast.

Wish the range was a little longer, but can't complain because this winter, It'll beat freezing my ass off in the snow somewhere.

Thanks again to the friendly staff that allowed me to pretty much bring everything including the kitchen sink for shooting. I'm sure once the place populates I'll have to limit how much bench space I take up next time!!

Today I got a chance to rent a bunch of guns I've considered purchasing.

Ar15 variant, Tavor, glock 17 and XD9.


I just wanted to say that anyone that goes to the range, spend the money and try the Travor. It was my first time shooting an AR15 variant, however, having an un-biased opinion, when I shot the Tavor I was very impressed. Sure, the trigger takes a little more pull but there is less recoil, and it seems to have a good balance and overall feel compared to a AR15 vairant.


I suppose it all comes to personal preference, but RDSC has helped me do important research before buying a new gun. I can't speak for everyone, but the 120$ or so I spent today really helped me determine what I should buy. It beats going and buying a new gun, then going on the internet trying to justify a new purchase.

Thanks again guys.

How long until there's a XCR on the rental rack? I'd love to be able to try one next to a Tavor, since both guns are on my dream list but I can only have one!!
