NCRRA: The National Capital Region Rifle Association

The National Capital Region Rifle Association (NCRRA) is a multi-discipline shooting organization based at the Connaught military ranges in Ottawa, Ontario. The NCRRA is comprised of sections and is dedicated to furthering the development of marksmanship skills in Target Rifle, Service Conditions, and Pistol.

Base annual general membership for 2023-24 is $145 ($65 for NCRRA membership plus $80 for DCRA membership). Additional annual fees apply by Section (see below). Junior members under the age of 25 pay $90, plus activity fees.

Renewing members from last year will not need to pay NCRRA membership or section fees this year, only DCRA fees. Lapsed members and new members will pay full fees as calculated on the membership application form.

Members pay an additional annual fee of $100 ($50 if under 25 years of age) , and may compete in as many of the disciplines for which they qualify except Service Rifle.

Pistol

The Pistol Section is made up of Target Pistol and Service Pistol. Members pay an annual fee of $20 ($10 if under 25 years of age) for pistol shooting and may participate in either or both disciplines. Note that an ATT (Authorization to Transport) specific to DND ranges is required to transport restricted firearms to the CRPTC ranges.

Note about ATTs (Authorization to Transport restricted firearms). NCRRA activities are held on federal military property. A special ATT is needed to transport restricted firearms to and from military property. These ATTs are obtained through the NCRRA ATT Coordinator. Until one of these ATTs has been issued to you, you MAY NOT bring your handguns and other restricted firearms to CRPTC, even if you already have a standard ATT for transport to an from civilian ranges. Application may be made through the activity captains of target pistol, service pistol, or service rifle. See the relevant Activity page of this website for email addresses.
