Shooting AK47's, Shotguns, MP5 SMG's in Las Vegas.

The Gun Store

Saturday 20th of June 2009
The Gun Store Flag Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

Today was an incredibly sunny day with no clouds in the sky, so what not better to do than to shoot some guns. I went to the Luxor hotel lobby and extended my car rental in order for me to drive to the gunrange on tropicana avenue.

Once I arrived I noticed tons of people waiting in line, all wanting to shoot some guns. I talked to the nice girls upfront that hooked my up with a package and were kind enough to give me full line bypass, so I could start shooting right away. What surprised me was how easy it is for a foreigner to just walk into a gunrange and start shooting the most massive & ridiculous guns, gotta love the United States. I chose the Gun Store Package, since I wanted a package with lots of feedback/kickback. I told the girls upfront I wanted to mess myself up.

The package included the:

  • Automatic Shotgun (12ga) with 5 rounds. 
  • Submarine Gun (H/K MP5 SMG) with 50 rounds
  • AK47 rifle with 25 rounds + I wanted the berreta for good fun with 2 full clips oh and I received a free t-shirt yippie! 

Since it was my first time shooting an actual gun I requested an instructor so I wouldn't kill myself haha. He was surpised I chose such a ridiculous package to start off with and thought I played too many videos games....(lovely counterstrike)

I selected my targets:

  • Osama Bin Laden 
  • Some other terrorists
  • Some dude in a train keeping people hostage

Starting off with the shotgun, than the berretta, the submarine gun and finalizing with the all famous AK47 assault rifle. For some reason I was expecting more feedback and kickback from the weapons but they all shot quite accurate. This was honestly the coolest experience during my trip and I can definitly recommend it.
