t e: Took the 1-day PAL course with Amyn and had a great experience, I went on a weekday so the class didn't have as many people so we were able to ask questions and practice freely. Amyn is a great guy and knows everything about guns and taught the course in a way that made the information really easy to consume, definitely learned a lot and would recommend!
Noah Wilson: Took the CFSC/CRFSC with Eric Beer who was extremely charismatic and an excellent instructor. Made the material easy to understand and a fun time. Would reccomend.
Debon Lee: Taking the firearm safety course with Eric and Carolyn was enjoyable and extremely informative. Course was lively and engaging. Dry material was condensed down into a simple, easily understood format. If you are interested in getting your PAL, I highly encourage getting a course with the BC Firearms Academy.
Lloyd Whelan: When it comes to your PAL/RPAL, there's no better man for the job than Eric.I've never seen someone boil down a couple hundred pages of legalese and blurred lines into easily practiced work so effortlessly. He teaches the bare minimums with ease, but it is easy to see that he treats the hobby and equipment with more responsibility than most.His dedication to the sport of shooting, engineering, and support of the community is unmatched, and he is an absolute asset to the hobby.A+++ could not recommend more highly.
Pat Pattu: Had my CFSC/CRFSC (PAL/RPAL) course last weekend at Burnaby location, with Kevin. Amazing instructor, very knowledgable made the two days an easy and fun time, I totally recommend.
DoanDoan: I usually don't leave reviews on anything but I felt I just had to after completing my firearms safety course with Mr. Eric Beer. Amazing teacher who is very passionate about what he does, he made learning a very enjoyable experience and made it an absolute certainty that you understand the core fundamentals of safety; not only the whats but the why as well. For anyone wanting to obtain their PAL or on the fence about joining a club I cannot recommend BC Firearms Academy enough
Andrew C: I went for their CFSC yesterday at their Burnaby location. Never knew you can easily take any firearm safety courses so close to Vancouver without driving too far, definitely a plus! Eric and Carolyn were amazing and the course was a blast as well. I will definitely come back to take my CFRSC very soon!
Lexxi R: Great course!! Super informative.. Kevin was an excellent instructor! 🙌 would highly recommend.
Ravi Randhawa: I attended Canadian firearm safety course(PAL and RPAL ) at Burnaby location. My instructor ERIC BEER was very knowledgeable,easy to understand and Humorous. He has strong interpersonal communication skills. I highly recommend him and this course.
Hark Athwal: Eric Beer was my instructor and he was an amazing, informative and entertaining instructor. Very difficult to fail if you take this class. Highly recommended
gabe fern: First off I just want to make abundantly clear to everyone how friendly and awesome these instructors are , truly top notch attitudes , patient and direct and fun teaching style make this a delightful and unique learning experience . It impresses me even more to know the impact of the passion that drives this A team to inform and educate others , is quite remarkable these days and inspiring ! So truly appreciate it. If your on the fence don't hesitate with these guys just remember one thing ....DO NOT LISTEN TO UNCLE TED !!! Also when you test : wait for instruction first ! ;)
Sean Murray: Great course taught by Amyn. Wonderful atmosphere and great teaching. Would highly recommend!
Jessica Blackmon: I took my Firearms Safety course with Eric Beer today and not only did I walk away feeling informed and capable, I thoroughly enjoyed my day! Eric did a phenomenal job of hitting the important points hard and making sure everyone was on the same page throughout the course. As others have mentioned, he is hilarious - which helps the 9 hr day fly by! Would 100% recommend BC Firearms Academy!
Ian Ottmann: Just completed the non- restricted course today with Eric! Great atmosphere for me coming in with very little firearm experience. Pace and presentation were on point and would highly recommend.
Martin Daignault: Awesome experience for my PAL course with M. Eric Beer. Just like his last name implies, it was a refreshing and “smooth down the hatch” course. The written and practical exams will leave you with a sense of drunk euphoria. Eric mastered the art of making platonic material into something fun and engaging. I paid more money for comedy shows that were half as good as Eric’s course. 10/10 would recommend.
Sandy McMillan: I just completed the 2 day CFSC and CRSC course with Amyn. The course was excellent with a good mix of practical and theoretical material. Amyn ensured the atmosphere was professional, informative and very accessible to all levels or particpants. I would highly recommend this course and instructor.
Liam O'Callaghan: Took my non restricted course with Eric great guy great information. Will be back with the wife to take restricted. Recommend to anyone looking to start there journey.
Nathan: Eric is a BOSS. Wish I had him from K-12…. Hahaha
Jeremey Kier: Took Dynamic Pistol 1 with instructor Jason Couture. It was the pistol shooting experience of a lifetime. I learned so much and had a great time doing it. Jason was fun and extremely knowledgable. Cant wait for Dynamic Pistol 2!
Chris Cormier: Took my CFSC with Eric, and it was an outstanding experience (Amazing teacher.) Probably one of the best teacher/student experiences I’ve ever had to be honest. Very passionate about his job, and very knowledgeable about the subject matter. Would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to get their PAL!
Lucy Schneider: Eric Beer is such an awesome instructor! I was pretty nervous before the class, but he makes it fun, informative and puts you at ease! I highly recommend taking any class with Eric, you won't regret it!

But he is also kind and patient. Me and my wife did the class and we recommend him to anyone before it’s too late and he retires!!!Thank you Mike and the VGC. We will be back.
AO WANG: One of the best range in Great Vancouver area. Staff and other people are super friendly and helpful as long as you can operate your firearm in a safely manner( not how well you can shoot, only safely handle of your firearm is what’s matters). the range is divided in to trap, international trap, skeet, 5 stands and sporting clay. Bring your own shotgun there is no firearm rental at the range. Range does sell ammunition at a fair price.
Bruce Schei: Friendly people, both users and workers! I had a great time there and plan to return more often!
Reza Taleb: I Went for My PAL, Restricted and non-Restricted License in VGC With Mike Glass, Super Lovely Guy, very well informed and gave me lots of insight to the Gun world and took the Core Course with Marc, Very nice hands-on and experienced person in all fields of Firearms that you can learn a lot from.The Club was also very well organized, nice staff and manager also lots of kind experienced shooters.I Definitely recommend This place.
Yuan Sam: Shot gun only. friendly staff and lots to play here. Trap/sket/sports/5 Stands ....Been a member for over 5 years. Staffs are very experienced shooters and willing to teach. Made lots of good friends here. Always loved it.
Milan Vrekic: Good food. Rude management.
Brian M: Had a great time here
Kristian Lawrence: Went here once to sight in my hunting shotgun on some clays. Was not disappointed.Update : the members are friendly, and if you are new and genuine about learning more on clay sports... This is the place to do it ! I have been to a few different ranges now, and this one has been by far the most helpful in terms of mentorship (for shotgun sports and clays). Highly recommended for rookies to try out.P.s. main rule ! No ammo in the shotgun unless in designated shooting area, and the chamber must always be open ! Oh, and enjoy yourself.
Eric C: Membership is insanely expensive at $250 a year. Open only 3 days a week. And often only running one or two trap houses at a time. Many weekends, they're closed for other private events. When your membership expires and you still have cash on your card, you can't use it until you buy another membership. Meaning you can't use the balance even on an individual day pass.

Colton James: I recently picked up a hunting rifle and scope. Everyone was super helpful and took the time to explain everything to me and answer all my questions. The best place to go hands down.
Jason Mann: Reliable lives up to its name. Good people working there, helpful and know their stuff. Fair prices and old-school feeling when you visit their shop. No wonder they have been around since 1950. 5 stars
David Key: Dealt with some of the most pleasant firearms store employees I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with.Saw several transactions and discussions taking place, with no mis-information or lack of knowledge. This store educates their employees properly, and they're appear to be enthusiasts at a minimum.Significantly better than my local Cabela's where illegal things have been recommended to me.
Alex Tian: These guys are simply reliable. Highly recommended.
Braeden Adams: Great product selection and service. Even better selection prior to May 2020
Sean Odonaghey: Great staff, everything ya need for hunting
Florence Belanger-Jones: Fantastic service. Thank you for your help Richard.
Sunny Bee: One of the best places to buy ammunition. Reasonably priced as well.
Mohammadreza Fadaee: Guys are AWESOME here, very helpful, welcoming and informative.Special Thanks to Thomas 🙏
Jeremy Davis: Very nice selection nice stuff I was happy I was able to finally stop by
Kelvin Fong: Shane was very professional and took his time explaining the options for my first purchase. No pressure and in his words the store “is a safe place” (no judgement) for gun owners. I will be back to support this company.
Alex I.: Great selection, decent prices, friendly and knowledgeable staff that is fairly helpful with making selections and placing orders.
David Choi: My first time at Reliable Gun. What a great group of guys! All very helpful and willing to assist. They were able to assess my issue and recommend a solution. I will definitely go back.
Ken Niemi: Great place, the police shop here also.
Chris shannon: Great place to shop online. Shipped fast. Great service. Thanks
Travis Parker: Amazing service. Just ordered online had the item faster then what I thought was possible. 6 stars
Sean Alexander: Super helpful guys that spend some serious time getting you the right product. They don't rush you even if the store is busy. Awesome
Garfield li: I bought a ruger ranch 5.56 rifle at this store during black Friday sales, before that I have already shopped at this store several times, all things are fine. But, this black experience made me change my view with this store, with previous trust, this time I didn't unbox the package to check out the product, after arriving home I found out this rifle is the used one, with carbon debris on the muzzle and bolt, plus chamber was scratched. So, Here I want to say never believing this namely reliable store all the time, sometimes it is unbelievable.I update my comments on above contents after receiving a call from a staff of the reliable gun store today, and I accepted his reasonable explanation on the possibility of the incidence. So, I appreciate the positive response from the reliable gun store and good attitude of professional service. re-rate my comment to Five stars.
Peter Byrne: Great Store. Locally owned small-business. (Support your local business!) Excellent selection & service. They know everything. No question is too stupid. Trust me... 😟
Pabs Rh: Awesome staff, quick answer to my inquiries and fast shipping
Drew Diaz: Great shop with knowledgeable people, and wide selection of new and used.(Older photos I wanted to throw in. Not sure if those are still around.)

Alexa Hofing: Absolutely incredible. Professional, humorous, 10/10 would go again. Thank you to our range officer, George for a wonderful experience.
T O (Diomedes): Many better options, would not recommend
Iron and Thread: Pros: Good range. Friendly, professional staff.Cons: Very expensive. Two people, one firearm and not much ammo at all, was north of $150. Less than an hour made it not worth it. Stickers all over made me feel this place was too politically right (alt-right). I don't want to associate with good ol' boys, anywhere; not after Covid denials, truckers BS, and all the problems Right Yahoos caused. 🙄
amin akfali: Fantastic experience 🤩
Paul Buikema: Safe and comfortable environment. Reasonable prices and the range officer was attentive and informative. Took myn15 year old twice and he of course loved the experience. All his buddies play video games with guns, he got a chance to try them for real.
Are Jay: Really enjoyed their range. Staff were friendly and courteous. I would recommend anyone with or without a Pal/Rpal to use their facilities. Safety was great too. Washrooms we’re cleaner than their competitor!
Shawn S: Update:March.30.2023 This week I've been going often since i thought I'd try to catch up for the months I missed due to health reasons and I just wnnt to give a huge Shout out to Sandy for being so accomadating and a pleasure to deal with. Its always a a great experience there but she makes it just a just that much better when she's working the front desk.Thank you Sandy** 👊🏼 As far as range officers go, I learn something new from Matt each time I visit. He's a solid guy once you get to know him.Overall most employees here are 5* in friendliness and service but like all places there's the few that go above and beyond. The ones that make you smile when you see their on shift that day plus I'm outgoing myself so I love the outgoing staff members even more.
Shona Ireland: What a awesome experience I had there tonight with my son! The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable and makes you feel very safe and confident We both can’t wait to go again
Chang Che: Lovely people and great service.They may not be able to answer your call, just email them. They will help as they can for sure.The words of a new member.
Oleksandr Romaniuk: It was the first time to shoot for me and my wife. We had a lot of fun. Very professionnal staff. Special thanks to our instructructor Liam who was very caring, polite and helpful.
Michaela Dane: Fantastic experience!
jose creuso: terrible customer service
ante cvitanovic: 1 hr is NOT enough for a family. We drove 2hrs round trip and payed $130 plus taxes for my wife and I to just be loading magazines for my boys, so they can get their time in. By the time we unpack, set up, and cleaned up/packed, 15mins goes by right there. The range fails to realize having 2 lanes with 2 people in each, or 1 lane with 4 people is the same amount of money for them in the end. Why not let a family of 4 have 2 hours so everyone can have their fun, and it's non rushed. We are dealing with firearms and there is no room for error. It would be the same thing if my wife had a PAL and we each took one of our sons and took up 2 lanes. These teens are the future of your business. When I called to complain, I was told we could get extra time if it's "not busy." Thats not good enough when our travel time is 2hrs. The least that could of been done, is a booking for 2 solid hours for 4 people" The range is beautiful, and our politics align, however, we won't be coming back.
Kelvin Fong: Awesome place and awesome staff. Will be back…considering a membership.
Aarzuh Sattar: Super fun and good experience. Make sure to take your time shooting and be ready to spend your money. Time will fly by FAST.
Lloyd Field: Nicest public indoor range in BC!
Zana Kamangar: My first range shooting experience, and I have to say it was amaaaZing. And there is no doubt that most of this was because of Chris, our cool trainer and officer, make sure to ask for him if you’re going.
KG: Great experience,nice range and big selection of guns. Also 5 stars to George he was great!
jasman sidhu: Helpful staff, guided with all the stuff. Great customer service
M Parragh: Great place,but cold as hell in the range

Kahylin Kelly: I just finished a course here and it was such a great experience. Dat is a great teacher, keeps things interesting and makes a ton of analogies and stories to help you retain the information. I highly recommend to anyone wanting to learn something new.
Christian Cillo: Thieves, told them they did not have permission to take my money to renew a membership but they did anyways. Would not recommend and will never use them in the future.Edit: I did not see the email until the day I was charged from my bank, also I did send a email telling the office they did not have permission and they said they will not return the money
Michael Peng: I took the course in Delta with Taka and it was very informative. Taka is a competitive shooter with over 30 years of shooting and hunting experience. He was very clear and to the point. The classroom was engaged and everyone who came was also very active in learning which made the experience even better. There was a good mix of hands on and theory which made the class exciting for me. I would definitely recommend anyone looking to take their cfsc/crfsc here.Initially I had some payment issues on the silvercore website but that was resolved very professionally by Lisa.
ANDY Brenner: Instructor Dennis Benard, excellent.Course content and instruction, second to none. Value for the money, definitely.Overall experience, enjoyable and very worth while. Will I take more courses relating to gun ownership and operation?, absolutely. Thank you, Andy Brenner
Jasmine M: Took the PAL/RPAL course by Silvercore with Roger F. at The Range in Langley, and it was a great experience, would 100% recommend to anyone looking to get their license. Roger was not only knowledgeable but was an excellent teacher, kept the class engaged, was patient, funny, and extremely helpful. You could tell he enjoys teaching and it was reassuring to learn that he is an active member of the armed forces. Though I was initially nervous, I left the course feeling genuinely comfortable with handling firearms of all sizes. Thank you for making this experience such a comprehensive and positive one!!
SoopaBass: Just completed my CFSC/CRFSC with their instructor Denis, and it was a fantastic experience. Denis delivered the course professionally, and had a wealth of information. Just the right amount of humour mixed in, to make it much more relaxed and engaging than I had originally expected as well. Highly recommended and already making future plans of enrolling in the other courses they offer.
Ken Derby: I just recently took my pal/rpal at Silvercores training facility in delta, it was something I've wanted to do for a long time and id only heard good things about this place. My experience was as just as I had expected. Amazing instructor with a goal to help you in understanding gun safety and the proper handling of firearms. I would recommend these guys to anyone who wants to become comfortable around firearms.
jacob garbutt: doing my firearms safety course to get my PAL/RPAL at Silvercore was a great experience, my instructor Richard was great, very kind and very informative. highly recommend anyone looking to get a Canadian firearms licence goes through their course you will not regret it.
Peter Holley: Just finished the unrestricted and restricted course taught by Rapheal, what a nice guy and a great teacher. I would absolutely recommend this course to anybody looking to get their PAL.
Greg Miller: Great facility, very professional, knowledgeable trainers who are extremely safe. I was new to the firearm world, but Silvercore made it easy and comfortable the entire time, and I left feeling very confident. Would highly recommend Silvercore no matter what level you are at.
Wei: My name is Wei. I just took my course this weekend, was a great experience, very informative. My instructor Denis is great, very helpful and knowledgeable, he is willing to answer any questions you have. The course was fun, and easy to understand. He will give you some examples and stories in humor way to let you know why people should do it in that way, and tell you the logic behind it, which is super helpful for me to pass the exam and know how to do it whenever I can own my own armfire.
Ajitpal Randhawa: I and my brothers went to Silvercore for our PAL course. Brock Edward, our instructor, is a great teacher and wonderful guy. We enjoyed and learned a lot from him. Great course and great environment. Thanks Silvercore.
Viking Farmer: I've done my R/Pal, Shotgun Fundamentals, and Handgun Fundamentals through Silvercore. I look forward to doing more classes when they offer them. When I first did my R/Pal, I was afraid of guns. But after the 2 day course I was not only NOT afraid of them, I was comfortable. The comfort only increased with each course I took. The instructors were great and so were the other students. There were no egos to contend with, everybody was there to learn, including the instructors who were open to the students experiences. They explained fully when they had to step in and correct and were supportive of mistakes. A special shout out to Adam whose love and enthusiasm for shooting was clearly evident. I can't recommend them enough.
Mike Graham: These guys are the best. Completed Handgun Fundamentals with Adam this past weekend - a great experience and very informative. Adam was an excellent instructor. Will certainly be taking more courses in the future.
Eg June Manilag: Sir Richard is a very fun guy and clearly has a well-founded passion for firearms! Very knowledgeable and thoughtful to his students! It really made all the difference. Kudos, sir!
Andrew Doyle: Took the CFSC/CRFSC through Silvercore at their Delta facility. The courses were professionally run and highly informative. There were some challenges with booking that were outside my or Silvercore's control, but they were responsive and we found a solution that worked for both parties.Based on this experience, I would strongly recommend taking courses through Silvercore.
DannyFoods: Just took my course this weekend, was a great experience, very informative. My instructor denis was great, very helpful and knowledgeable, with most questions asked. Would recommend this training if your looking for a good class to help you succeed. Lots of hands on practice plus good power point knowledge of firearms. Thanks silvercore!
Scott Jarvis: I am thrilled about the training I received and I really need to give props to my instructor. He was completely professional and disciplined without coming across like an intimidating drill sergeant. I feel like I’m starting off with a confident and safe foundation. Absolutely recommend 👍
Jonathan FitzGerald: Professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. The course was riveting and well conducted! I will continue to be a customer there.
Chris M: My wife and I took the CFSC/CRFSC firearm safety and it was a great course. The instructor Roger Fordham was exceptional. He was knowledgeable. He was patient and answered all questions. You can see he has a passion for firearms and teaching. I highly recommend this course and SilverCore training. I will be signing up for more of their offerings.
Thomas Lam: Recently took the handgun fundamental and the course was excellent. Silver core was able to provide timely communication even during Covid time with changing health instruction. Instructors and staff at Silvercore are friendly and professional

Farzaneh Rezaei: I did an introductory session here, with my friends. Eva, our instructor was very lovely. She explained safety rules, different forms and bows to us. However, the most interesting part of the class, throwing arrows, was the briefest. When I reserved, they said the class would be 75 minutes for 3 ppl and i paid 190$. But we finished after an hour, and our instructor spent the first 20 minutes on preparing the range and the bows. The whole experience was very fun but I think they charge way too much for throwing a total of 4 arrows.
Noah Schwartz: I took the Introduction to Archery Workshop with Patricia this weekend and could not recommend it more. Patricia is clearly a master archer. I felt very privileged to be able to take a class with an instructor of her experience (she has consulted on major TV productions!)In addition to her skill, she also shared with us a wealth of knowledge on the history of archery, which I appreciated learning more about given that I am a giant history nerd.More than that, she created an engaging and safe learning environment. People felt comfortable asking questions and chatting with one another thanks to the great work Patricia put into fostering that environment. As a University Professor, I understand how hard it can be to take a room full of strangers and turn them into a learning community. Patricia was able to do this using her charisma, humor, and passion for her subject.The class is divided into a lecture portion (about 70% of class time) and a practical portion (about 30%). The only thing I would change in the class would be to mix the lecture and practical elements up a bit to get people out of their seats and give them time to digest the information.If you are interested in learning more about the history or practice of archery, I would highly recommend the class.
Alejandra: What an incredible experience! I recently completed the Intro to Archery class and Patricia and the team are such great teachers.They made us feel really comfortable, we were able to ask all the questions that we needed, and I’m excited to continue doing ongoing classes.If you’ve ever thought about learning archery, this is the place to go! It’s also great to support local businesses and even better when you can tell it’s their passion to do it. Highly recommend!
Drew Piwell: Staff was very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. The hours of business can be easy to forget as they are irregular but each time I have come in or emailed, I have been met with excellent customer service.
Mary Crayston: The owner is difficult to communicate with, unprofessional, defensive and dismissive. When I realized that this place of business was continuing to uphold a mask policy - which I did not realize until after the first day of my sons camp that it was not optional - I requested that he have the option of not wearing the mask. This was a hard no from the owner and she was unwilling to compromise on any part of a refund. We did not want our son inside, being active for 5 hours and having to wear his mask. While I respect it is a business owners right, it is no longer a mandate. In any case, regardless of whether or not I would have received even a partial refund I would have appreciated having a conversation with her about it. After communicating with a member of her staff I requested to speak with her, after I called and sent an email, the owner replied to my email with a cold, defensive, and righteous message.I would not send my child here.
Joaquin Muñoz: There is no better place in town to learn all about archery! Amazing instructors who have a wealth of history and knowledge and a deep respect for all forms of archery.I really appreciated the lead teacher's attention and obvious joy in teaching newcomers to the sport. If you've ever been interested in archery this is the place to go!
Michelle Krywolt: My teen had been wanting to learn about Archery for quite some time and then we found Lykopis. We are both so grateful that we did. Patricia runs excellent classes and all the instructors are knowledgeable and make learning fun. The kids class gets to learn history and crafts as well as Archery and my teen always comes out of class excited and wanting to learn more!!!!
touf touf: Took the introductory class this saturday and loved it. The teacher is really knowledgeable and passionate, she apparently takes part to a lot of international competitions and have a lot of little stories that she tells during those 2h. They are also really mindful of the on going pandemic and rules, which is highly appreciated. Practical location too! 100% recommended
Kasia Ginders: Really passionate teachers who are incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of archery. There are great opportunities to learn repair skills and bow and arrow crafting. The instructors are very patient and have great attention to detail in developing good form, and create a really good environment to focus.
Abdulhaseeb Khan: I had such a cool time, it was fascinating from the horse archery class to seeing the archery craft work. Very cool for me as a history junkie. I must also add that there teaching skills are very good too. I have been to more then 12 archery and topochery training places, this is by far the best in BC especially if your into old school archery.
Liz Hunt: Instructors are fun and passionate about what they do. They love to share their craft with anyone and everyone from kids to adults! Definitely the highlight of my week.
Alvin Wong: Final point? If you look at their new website (the old one shutdown for a couple months) it looks like lessons are now bookable.. *face palm*
Sab C: The instructors are wonderful, learned so many things with each of them in my archery journey with the school and it's been 5 1/2 years. Even when I stopped as a regular student due to COVID and personal reasons, I still loved going for open range. supporting good local business. some people do meditation to clear their mind, archery IS my meditation and I am glad it's with the team at Lykopis (past and present folks!).
Alee Bear: LOVE this place! I signed up for an intro class almost two years ago and immediately signed up for classes. I was drawn in by the passionate, fun way in which the instructors taught their craft/art. After researching other options...what drew me to this school was the commitment to teaching different disciplines of traditional archery. The teaching environment is inclusive and structured,with awareness of individual physical needs. My archery class is a highlight of my week-every week :-)
Jovick Lee: Knowledgable staff dedicated to traditional archery. Had a fun time here for a work event.
Chris Morris: The owner clearly doesn’t have much knowledge of archery, seems to be a cash grab ripping off people who are genuinely interested in learning.
Jessica M: I had planned a bachelorette at Lykopis and it was such a great idea! We went with a package that included 1 hour of instruction/practice shooting and then 1 hour of team shooting for about $34 per person. Taylor was a fabulous instructor, and made us all feel at easy about trying our archery for the first time. I would strongly recommend Lykopis as we all had an blast!
Quillan Andrews: They are impossible to get in contact with, we have called and left messages many times and have not heard back. Is this place even still open?
Lil AJA Tingz: I tried to take private lessons here so I sent them an email.. I received a reply after weeks of waiting. Then when I emailed them back, never got a reply back:(
Andrew Be Still Well: Awesome staff, they take their craft seriously. Great experience.
Siena Locher-Lo: Often the highlight of my week :)

Bibi: After meeting the shop owner at the archery field he knew right away something was wrong. After a quick adjustment he had my bow shooting 10 times better within a day.
Rohan Bansie: Highly recommend! The owner is a great guy!
Derek Gray: The owner is great in guiding me to my first purchase of a compound bow. Was up front about the bow maker releasing their next year models and asked me if I wanted to wait. Customer service like this isn't taught or done much. I ended up preordering next year's model. Looking forward to when it arrives.Seriously great customer service.Edit:Its a damn good bow. The owner went above and beyond so that I could get my bow asap. Definitely my pro shop for years to come. Thanks
Mike Schaber: Knowledgeable people running the shop and more than willing to help find a solution to issues. They don’t have a lot of stock so items seem to be ordered as needed.
Justin Ormiston: A small, but very knowledgeable bow shop.Although there is little inventory in store, Lucian is able to order, service and install all of the best archery equipment. JSA has the essentials on hand for when it counts, and the skills to get you dialed for all archery disciplines.
Nicky Hou: Had a great experience! The shop owner is very knowledgeable and has helped me every time I needed adjustments or new gear. Highly recommend
Karen Bereti: Great shop! Would highly recommend
Info Info: Great experience here for first time bow shopper. Thanks for the help!
Dot G: Went to the 'other' shop *not shooting arrows - in New West and they tried to sell me a pink bow when I walked in the door just because I am female... I didn't feel great there so checked out Just Shooting and was very happy I did. Lucian was very knowledgable and helpful, including being patient and informative (in a non patronizing way) for a brand new shooter. He helped me pick out a beginner compound, order in the right one for me when I was too weak to pull what was there, lol - and was helpful through my 'aesthetic modifications' desired (I may not want a pink bow, but like it to look a certain way.) Can't wait to get practicing, and look forward to shopping there again in the future. Thanks!
Jeremy Pederson: I took my bow into the surrey shop to have it tuned by a "pro". When I was picking it up I noticed the module screw had come loose and ground out the bottom limb. He offered to contact the manufacturer to get it covered then didnt return my phone call. I recommend looking at the bow shop in new west for your archery needs.
Bianca Rizzo: Very knowledgeable pro shop like service. Competitive pricing.Like
Eric Smith: Small store with well selected but limited stock. Very helpful and friendly.A great place to have around.
Gregg Hunter: Great service!!!!!!
chris miller: I came in from out of town to shop for a bow. After a terrible experience at another shop in New Westminster I hit up Just Shooting Arrows at their newly opened shop in Surrey. The owner is super knowledgeable and helped me through the entire buying process. While I was browsing, a few other people had come into the store. You could see the passion and knowledge being shared and passed onto experienced archers as well the next generation of archers.I walked out of there with a fully setup Hoyt Hyperforce and a grin on my face.Don't expect a big storefront, but if you are in the market for a bow, you owe it to yourself to atleast go and see the guys at JSA.
Austin Wilson: Very nice and knowledgeable but they only had like 4 bows in the store..
Graham Batchelor: Quick delivery - well packed - contents per advertised and a free T-shirt! I'll be back.
Mike Oxley: If you're looking for an archery store with the best service and honest advice look no further. It's a small shop but he has a great selection of accessories at very fair prices and if he doesn't have what you're looking for he can get it for you. The owner helped me out immensely and fixed/tuned my hunting bow when another popular store (in New West) showed no interest in figuring out was the problem was. Needless to say I'm impressed. They've earned a new customer and I can't reccommend Just Shooting Arrows enough. Thanks again!
L Louis: The owner is extremely knowledgeable, down-to-earth and has a lot of practical experience. Spent nearly an hour speaking with him today about purchasing some new equipment. I never felt like I was being rushed or that he was pushing stuff that I didn’t need. Would definitely shop here again.
Ahmad Hejri: I didn't buy anything from this store, But I found him very nice and friendly.
Emma Fierling: Great service, and practical advice - even for a newbie such as myself. Reasonable prices too!
Trevor Adams: Very knowledgeable pro shop like service. Competitive pricing.
