| - I am not keen on guns and am still not. However, this was definitely a unique experience. And one that I recommend trying out once or perhaps twice in your life.
Be prepared to wait in line. Luckily, we got there when it wasn't super busy, but I could see that any time later would have cost us more time waiting.
It is pricy. For 20 bullets to shoot, it was $25. 20 bullets, depending how fast you shoot and how experienced you are, could be from 5-15 mins max. So, expect it to be very quick if you shoot 20 bullets. More bullets=more $$. And for $2 more, you get to pick out a target of your choice. Zombie target for me...Ooh, freaky!
I got to try the Glock 19, a 9mm and it was pretty intimidating when I first held it in my hands. Although you are wearing protective eyewear and headphones, the noises that come out of those guns are still very loud, so be sure to keep your headphones on at all times when you enter the range. The instructor, who is with you the whole time, will guide you and direct you to shoot at your target. He (whose name I forgot due to loud gunshots firing at targets) was really great at teaching me the proper way of holding, standing and firing a gun. If this be it your first time, and you are a bit of a fraidy cat like moi, then ask a lot of questions and make sure you feel confident before you pull that trigger.
