text: Blah Blah,\nInstead of a long review I will say this,\n\nIt's expensive as balls, its crowded, and very obviously a novelty experience more akin to a roller coaster ride than a gun enthusiast location.\n\nEmployees walk around with sidearms and extra ammo (why?!?!), and seem to hate life/ and or treat you like an idiot because you've never fired a machine gun so you must be and idiot.  You don't load the gun, you receive little instruction on how to operate the gun other than the requisite \"squeeze, don't pull\" and \"feet shoulder width.\"  So when talked to like a novice, I dont take instruction well.  Pull the trigger till the gun goes click, its more fun that way. \n\nHaving been in the military and having fired many guns before, I thought it was all a bit too patronizing.  \n\nBottom line:  You pay a lot ($50) to fire one gun down range at an approximate distance of 25 ft.  The experience will last under 1 minute.\nFor what you pay the service/location/and range should be better.  Its novelty though, and IF YOU ARE UNACCUSTOMED TO SHOOTING, than you may relish in the thrill and simplicity of it all. Where else are you going to shoot a Thompson or a MP-40, full auto, with no prior training? Ppl from the UK and Australia seemed to love it.
