    Why Irish Shooters Travel

    Things You Can't Do on an Irish Range

    Ireland has some of the strictest firearms law in the EU. Poland is the easiest place to actually train.

    No Irish Firearms Certificate Required

    Train on pistols, AR15s and shotguns without an Irish FAC. Polish law lets visitors shoot under a licensed instructor.

    Direct Flights from Dublin

    Ryanair flies Dublin → Wrocław in under 3 hours. Cheaper and faster than driving to most Irish ranges.

    Affordable Real Training

    Live-fire courses from €160. Irish ranges charge that for an hour of .22 — here it's a full day with rifles and pistols.

    Real Tactical Curriculum

    Draw from holster, dynamic shooting, malfunction drills, CQB-style movement. Things Irish law won't allow at home.

    Irish Gun Laws vs Polish Range Law

    In Ireland

    • • Centrefire handguns effectively banned since 2009
    • • FAC requires Garda interview, "good reason" and long waits
    • • Semi-auto centrefire rifles prohibited
    • • Drawing from a holster not permitted on most ranges
    • • No realistic CQB or dynamic shooting

    FAQ

    Questions From Irish Shooters

    Do I need an Irish Firearms Certificate?

    No. Poland's firearms law allows non-residents to shoot any firearm at a licensed range under the direct supervision of a qualified instructor. No Irish FAC or any permit required.

    Can I bring my own firearm from Ireland?

    Technically yes with an EU Firearms Pass and Polish import authorisation, but it's slow and paperwork-heavy. 99% of Irish clients use our rental arsenal — fully maintained Glocks, CZs, AR15s, shotguns and bolt-action rifles.

    What does a typical Irish shooter's weekend look like?

    Friday: fly Dublin → Wrocław (Ryanair direct). Saturday: full day live-fire course. Sunday: optional private coaching or explore Wrocław old town. Monday: home.

    Is it legal to fly home after shooting?

    Yes. You haven't owned or transported any firearm — everything stays at our range. Shower before flying to remove GSR (gunshot residue) if you're concerned about airport swabs.

    How much should I budget?

    Flights €60–€140 return, hotel €50–€80/night, full-day shooting course €160–€300, food and transport €100. A solid weekend runs €450–€650 all-in.

    Do you cater to Irish Defence Forces, Gardaí or close-protection professionals?

    Yes. We regularly host serving and former Defence Forces members, ARW, ERU and CP operators looking for force-on-force-adjacent training they can't access at home.
