Vegas Machine Gun Range Offers New Way to Let Loose

For Vegas die-hards bored with the $750 tasting menu at Guy Savoy, the $250 Elton John tickets at Caesars or the $200,000 single-hand baccarat bet at the Bellagio, this city is serving up a new way to find high-priced thrills.

Machine Guns Vegas — an upscale, indoor shooting range complete with skimpily dressed, gun-toting hostesses — opened last week a half mile from the Strip, with an armory of weapons and a promise to fulfill the desires of anyone wanting to fire off an Uzi or a vintage Thompson submachine gun. With its provocative mix of violent fantasy (think blowing holes through an Osama bin Laden target with an AK-47) and sexual allure, it is the latest example of how the extravagances and excesses that have defined Las Vegas are moving beyond the gaming table.

Why are these things always geared for men?? The Gun Store is always one of my stops when I’m in Vegas, but I would rather see hunks in shorts.

I usually drive from L.A. to the Strip within 4 hours, but usually for big fights like Manny Pacquiao and I have to agree that there are some buffets around the city that offer 5$ buffets, if you know where to look for it. Some of it by word of mouth.

I had steaks at the Hard Rock for $40 but I had better steaks for $10 at the California or Sunset Station.

Or you could just show up “skimpily dressed.”

Even better, some of those off-duty gladiators from Caesar's Palace. Or would that be too weird to see them with hamdguns, lol?

My first auto experience was tamer than yours. It was a silenced 9mm Uzi. It stayed perfectly on-target through the whole magazine.
