We recommend getting in touch with us before submitting your membership application so we can discuss what our club offers and answer any questions you may have. We are not a shooting gallery and have strict requirements as to the types of matches that can be undertaken at our ranges and the types of pistols and ammunition used on the range. If you have already done this then please proceed.

Please note all applications for new membership are not considered valid until all required documents have been submitted, all fees have been paid in full AND your membership application has been reviewed and approved by the club's executive committee. If for some reason your application is rejected you will be refunded in full for any fees already paid. A seperate membership application needs to be completed for each individual.

To apply for membership you will require the following documents:

1. Statement of Eligibility OR Current Firearms Licence

If you don't already hold a current Qld Firearms Licence you will need to obtain a QP515 Statement of Eligibility from Queensland Police Service.

(download the application form here and submit to your local police station.

2. Two signed Character References. 

Two signed character references are required from persons who have known you for at least 2 years. They must be over 18 years of age and on the electoral roll. They must not be related or living at the same address. They cannot be committee members of Beaudesert Target Pistol Club.

(download an example character reference template here)

Once you have entered your details, uploaded the required forms AND paid a $75 joining fee (an invoice will be sent once you submit your paperwork), your application will be submitted to our Executive Committee for approval. If approved you will receive another invoice for the balance of your membership fees payable for the year. Note our membership year runs from July 1 to 30 June.
