Shooting 50cal assuming you mean .50BMG, is recommended by docters for sinus clearing and deep tissue concussion.

Thanks op

Unfortunately no matter where you go this is one of the cheaper deals. I debated doing one of these things when I went to Vegas too, but by the time you add it all together you might as well buy your own ammo and have your own fun. 30 rounds of 223 on a full auto is about $80 and 3secs. My cheap ass can’t afford that.

small caliber arms, must buy shotgun rounds to feel the kickback.

I shot a real 50 cal machine gun back in the day in the reserves, lifetime of memories.

Silverdale is a hoot. My wife and I did it a few years ago and we found out it was a hobby we were both interested in pursuing. $60 for $10 worth of ammo, the overhead involved with running the day and the wages for the person charged with keeping you safe is a steal.

I mean... if you have no firearms nor license, you don't really have a choice.
Full service ranges (where you can rent firearms) are quite expensive.
If you want to do this on a regular basis, this is a terrible deal.
But once in a while with friends? It's a blast.

The real money is in the firearms you don't have to buy.

22lr Handgun = $400
9mm Handgun = $500
AR = At least $500 if it's a Chinese one and quite a bit more if it's not.

Definitely if you have your own firearms. This is a terrible deal if you do.
But this is geared towards those that don't have their own firearms.

30 rounds of 223 on a full auto is about $80 and 3secs.

Sure, but you definitely can't do that in Canada.
Here you can pew pew pew pew pew and you're done.
There you can pew a whole lot more and a whole lot quicker.

My cheap ass can’t afford that.

Yeah... Shooting in general is literally blowing money.

Rapid fire is not allowed at most gun ranges.

Did this a couple years ago through a groupon I believe. Had a nice instructor, was a pleasant experience, although a small amount of ammo ofc.

Main tip I have is if coming from the GTA direction, don't use google gps. Take Victoria road/highway 24 straight off the qew instead. Google maps sent me through the small cities and small backroads lol im surprised my reception didnt cut.

Did this a few years ago with a few buddies. It was a fun experience. Also included was a single round of this huge gun they had mounted on a table. That was great.

Not sure I’d do it again though. It was a novelty at the time, but I find as I’m getting older I’m starting to develop an aversion to the idea of guns.
