How the Lion City differs from an indoor city event

The drive from Braunschweig to the targets fills an afternoon – and makes clear that nobody should look for a range between Kohlmarkt and Magniviertel.

Rules first, then a shot, always the region

PAA Shooting Academy does not sell a town festival. It sets a guided slot: check papers, put protection on, understand commands, only then fire. People who live in Braunschweig get a regional offer, not a counter under the town hall. Access sits on the booking sheet, not as a pin on schnupperschiessen-braunschweig.de.

Rules first, then a shot, always the region

Six points for Wolfenbüttel, Salzgitter and the Lion City

Not a slide deck – Academy daily practice, written for drivers from the Oker, the steel town and the Helmstedt country.

Two dates that matter: 2009 and 2015

Since 2009 Michael Paa has taken beginners to firearms. As a company PAA Shooting Academy has existed since 2015. Braunschweig appears in the calendar portal as a selectable place, not as a high-street shop.

ID is enough, weapons law still applies

You do not need a weapons licence. You need adulthood or the Academy rules for younger guests, plus a document that proves who you are.

Protection is ready, extra ammunition is not automatic

The team provides glasses and hearing protection. Anyone who wants to shoot beyond the package buys ammunition on site – stock and remaining time permitting.

German or English, without a jargon wall

Commands and explanations come in German or English. We turn specialist words into everyday language before anyone touches a trigger.

Watching means watching

Companions may travel and watch from the designated strip. A spontaneous grab for a firearm is not part of the procedure.

A voucher buys a slot, not scenery

Order the voucher in the Academy shop. It is redeemed on an advertised Braunschweig day or on an alternative place named there.

East of the Oker, not in the pedestrian zone

Tell guests freely: about 40 minutes by car from the Lion City, more if the A2 or A39 is jammed. The range house number stays private. This domain shows neither a map nor coordinates.

What the advertised Braunschweig day actually offers

Handguns and long guns belong to the taster package. Which models sit in Braunschweig is in the individual listing, not on an eternal menu.

  • Sport pistol
  • Police pistol
  • Magnum revolver
  • Shotgun
  • Assault rifle / AR15
  • Further long guns depending on the listing

What the slot typically carries

This is how the Academy summarises the package. The booking page for that day remains binding.

  • A safety briefing before the first shot is fired
  • Supervised shooting with a handgun and/or long gun as listed
  • Ammunition in the package volume of the booking page
  • Eye and ear protection without a surcharge
  • A frame of about one to two hours, depending on group size

Three people, one circle, no volume discount

Friends, a team or an occasion: from three guests the afternoon can belong to you alone. The package price stays. What you buy is undivided instructor time, not a rebate slip.

If the frame fits, choose Braunschweig in the shop

Set the Braunschweig place in the Academy calendar. If the right day is missing, a call to +49 89 41141157 is enough.
