Shooting while in Crete

[Dorset_shooter]

On the off chance I thought I'd ask! Anyone know of a shooting range near Heraklion airport in Crete ??

I don't want to shoot clays and I'm struggling to find anything else close. A few clubs that rent hand guns on the west coast but that's 2 hours from me.

I'm here for a couple of weeks so thought I'd have a look!

I can't do find any contact details or an address online, no one unsurprisingly knows a gun wielding monk!

If you have any more information please share

Have you asked the Fallschirmjaeger ?

I've managed to find the location of a range but no contact details on line suggests it's not an pay & play type range.

Shame as the only other range (mentioned in posts above) is a good 2 1/2 hours away from where I'm staying.

A short trip to go shooting wouldn't have been a problem but 5 hours in a taxi on my honeymoon isn't ideal!

Get your self out in the country and try the locals, most people there have AKs and like.
