The Gun Store Review
At The Gun Store, you don't have to be a soldier, a video game character or an actor to get your hands on some serious weapons.
We're talking Tommy guns. AK-47s. M-16s. MP-40s. You name it, you can get your hands on it! Best of all? You don't need a special license for anything.
The Gun Store allows you to try fully-automatic machine guns, handguns, rifles, and shotguns. Popular with celebrities as well as tourists, this place is definitely worth checking out. It was already featured on The Travel Channel, The World Fishing Network, YouTube and MySpace and in "Maxim," "FHM" magazine and "The New York Times."
Nervous? Don't be! If this is your first time handling a gun, rest assured that the trained staff will make sure you're in good hands. All employees are certified range safety officers through the National Rifle Association. In addition, many of the staff members are retired military and law enforcement officers.
During your tour, select one gun from each of the following categories (a total of three guns):
- Handgun (20 shots): Glock, Springfiled, Beretta, Walther, FNH, Ruger, Smith & Wesson or Dirty Harry .44
- Shotgun (5 shots) or semi-automatic rifle (10 shots): Benelli M4 12-gauge, Remington 12-gauge, AR-15, HK G3, Springfield M1A, HK G36 or Beretta Cx4 Storm
