C7 Familiarization – Sign Up Today

All Level 3’s and up that are interested in C7 training this year please reach out to Capt Bowman directly via Slack by end of day today. Any cadets that miss the deadline will not be able to participate this year.

  • Training will take place on a Wednesday within the next 3 weeks at the Lake St. Armoury in St Catharines.
  • Preference will be given to cadets that have not completed any C7 familiarization in the past, although all cadets are encouraged to sign up.

The C7 (aka the Colt Canada C7 rifle) is the Canadian version of the M16A3, and is primary assault rifle of the Canadian Forces. We will be learning about the C7, safety, and working our way towards firing it on the SAT range (a virtual firing range with the actual rifle outfitted with electronics to simulate firing, jams, and work on aiming).

Cadets interested are to Direct Message Capt Bowman via Slack before midnight tonight.
