You are from England, and you want to join a Club in (or near) Amsterdam where you can shoot (fire?) hand guns.
Well I'll give you one thing, it's certainly different from the usual Amsterdam questions, but can't help thinking why a frequent visitor to the Netherlands should want to 'pass the time away' by going to a gun club. Never mind, each to their own------- Anyway I've had a quick search and I found this. It may help, but it's getting late, so you will have to pick your own way through it. http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~cvdspoel/schietsport/schietlinks.htm Click on anything with 'wapen' or 'schietsport' |

There are several "schietverenigingen" (shooting clubs) in Amsterdam. I have left a link below. The Netherlands has a strict weapons-policy. Would you like to shoot with handguns as a sports practice, you are obliged to join a shooting club.
Possession of firearms by civilians is prohibited in principle. You have to meet certain conditions to own a gun. The police checks whether you have a criminal record. Each year you must renew your weapon-license and once again prove that if you shoot as a sports-practice. A shooting club has guns, but there are strict rules for ammunition. (see for instance http://svshogun.nl/site/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=22&Itemi d=38 for guns) |
