Welcome to Umzinto Shooting Club!
We are a dedicated private sport shooting club, distinct from public-access ranges or commercial shooting facilities. Our focus is on serving the responsible civilian firearm community through structured, member-based activities. While we welcome newcomers who share our values, participation is limited to members and invited guests to ensure a safe, focused environment.
Shooting at the range at Ellingham Quarry is by prior arrangement only - persons wishing to shoot during business hours without making an appointment can use the indoor range at Titan Arms in Amanzimtoti. Indoor Range - Titan Arms
Join Our Shoots:
Our club organizes shooting events on a private range, scheduled for specific days and times (see the schedule page by clicking here: Shooting Days ). Confirmation for these events are shared through our club's WhatsApp group. Additionally, members may occasionally have opportunities to participate in events hosted by other sport shooting clubs or special training events.
No unauthorised shooting is permitted at the range.
A range officer must be present to ensure strict safety protocols.
A register of all shooters is kept and the indemnity agreement must be signed before shooting.
Shoot with what you have available:
You don't need the latest 'wonder nine' modern 9mm pistol or fancy equipment. Your EDC / carry gun (pistol or revolver) is good to use and compete with. You are not competing against other shooters but against yourself. The aim is for you to keep record of your personal performance to improve your personal best score.
Contributing to the Club:
To help cover operational costs, a minimal range fee of R70 is applicable at our shooting events.
Our Commitment:
Umzinto Shooting Club is committed to providing a legal, safe, accessible, and affordable environment for both competitive and recreational shooting. We also encourage skill development, with experienced members often providing guidance to those looking to improve their shooting abilities.
