The Regina Police Service is notifying the public of what appears as use of rifles used in Regina.
Biathlon Saskatchewan is offering biathlon demonstration during the exhibition session at I Love Regina Day, on Saturday, August 17, 2024, at Victoria Park. Biathlon is a winter sport that combines cross-country skiing and rifle shooting.
At this demonstration, participants will have the opportunity to try optical biathlon rifles. While optical biathlon rifles look like a genuine firearm, they do not shoot a projectile. Instead, they use camera technology to take a picture of the target and communicate with the user via an electronic display whether the picture taken is a “hit” or a “miss” on the target.
We are issuing this notice as the appearance of rifles in the area might cause alarm for citizens. Signage will be placed around the booth communicating to the public the equipment being used.
