No gun license is required. The Firearms act of 1968 states you can shoot under supervision at any age.

Does Clay Shooting require strength to take part?
In Bristol the guns we use are standard over and under 12 gauge shotguns. In Bournemouth due to planning restrictions we use a moderated hushpower semi auto. The guns can become heavy whilst taking part. There is no problem with the instructor assisting and taking some of the weight, or if you would like to take a break, that is no problem. With some advance warning we maybe able to provide a lighter gun. If you are concerned please let us know when booking.

How long does the session last?
Each activity slot is dependent on your group size and the number of shots you book. As a guide, with 20 shots 1-6 people it will take 30 minutes, 7-10 people 45 minutes and 11-12 people one hour. If you book the 30 shot option it will take 50% longer or double the time for the 40 shots option. In certain circumstances such as a small group where your health and safety could be at risk from overconfidence, we may reduce this time. Alternatively if you are acting beyond what Max Events, or our instructors deem safe/acceptable, you will be asked to leave the activity. No refunds will apply for misuse of equipment.

Purchasing more shots on the day is a possibility, dependant on availability and time.
