How many firearms will be available to demo at CANCON?

While the distinct total number of available firearms remains yet undetermined, we guarantee that there will be at least 200+ different firearms available for you to demo with live rounds. The combination of a wide variation of suppressors with the available firearms further increases the amount of unique builds that will be available for all attendees to learn about and shoot.

How many guns can I shoot at CANCON?

As many as you have time for! CANCON Georgia will feature 25+ lanes of shooting with multiple firearms available for demonstration per lane. The exact amount of rounds available per demo is determined by the Lane Operator at their sole discretion. (Be nice to your Lane Operator!)

Can I demo the same firearm twice?

Yes. However, all decisions about who can shoot which firearm, and for how many rounds is completely determined by the Lane Operator. If other CANCON attendees are in line for demos behind you the Operator may ask that you get back in line for an additional demo on any firearm.

What is the night shoot and when does it happen?

VIP Ticket Holders will have an exclusive opportunity to participate in a nighttime event on Friday where they can shoot suppressed with low light tools, night vision goggles, clip-on night vision optics, IR lasers, tracers, and more. The 2023 VIP Night Shoot will also introduce a black-light shotgun range featuring neon clays. More information will be available at the event.  Available VIP tickets are limited.

NEW FOR CANCON GEORGIA 2023: Due to popular demand, We have added a second Night Shoot on Saturday Night for Premier Ticket Holders. The Saturday Premier Night shoot will feature low-light shooting tools at the rifle ranges, plus white-light shooting at the pistol range. Night vision gear will be available to demo.

Do I need an ID to enter CANCON?

We reserve the right to request a valid ID. All attendees will be required to sign a liability waiver prior to entry, including parents signing on behalf of their children.

Will CANCON be held rain or shine?

Because this is a 2-day event, it is very unlikely the whole weekend will be lost to bad weather.  If the weather becomes unbearable for the majority of either day of the event, we will approve said day’s tickets for the next day.  In the unlikely occurrence that the whole weekend is lost, the event will be rescheduled and a new date announced as soon as possible.

Can I bring my own firearms and ammo to CANCON?

Carrying Firearms in accordance with local laws is permitted. However, there will be NO open lanes for shooting personal firearms and/or personal ammunition during the event.

Will eye and ear protection be provided if I didn’t bring my own?

We highly recommend that you bring your own eye and ear protection to CANCON. However, if you forget to bring yours there will be eye and ear protection available.

Will food be available for purchase on-site?

Food and refreshments will be available on-site for purchase.

Does the facility have porta-potties?

Yes. Restrooms and extra porta potties will be on site.

Can I bring my kids to CANCON?

Yes, entry for children under 12 is free. Children must be supervised at all times. Children under the age of 6 are required to be kept well clear of active firing lines for the duration of the event. Children are permitted to shoot with parental supervision, but tickets must be purchased for any child who would like to shoot.
