💡Can you shoot a .50 caliber Barrett at the Las Vegas outdoor range?
This 4-hour outdoor shooting experience lets you fire .50 caliber weapons like the Barrett Sniper Rifle, Browning BMG, and Desert Eagle for $99 per person with hotel pickup from Las Vegas. You shoot fully automatic machine guns and movie-featured firearms at a private Mojave Desert range with an ex-military instructor, plus an included burger lunch. Best for adults 18+; not advised for pregnant travelers or those with spinal or heart conditions.

🎯 Why People Book This

What this tour is built around is firing weapons most people only see in movies, the Barrett sniper rifle and Browning .50 Cal among them, on a private outdoor range in the Mojave Desert with an ex-military instructor beside you. At USD 99 per person with hotel pickup, lunch, and all fees folded in, the real choice here is paying for a guided full-auto session rather than the round-counting of an indoor range. Six packages let you decide how much you actually want to shoot, down to a non-shooter option for someone along to watch. You're choosing how much trigger time is worth to you, with a guide who can run the camera while you go at your own pace.

🗺️ The Experience

The Private Range Shooting Experience with Military Instructor is a four-hour outing from Bullets and Burgers that pairs hotel pickup, time on a private outdoor range in the Mojave Desert, and lunch, starting at USD 99 per person.
That $99 is the floor, not the ceiling. It buys the whole frame of the day: the round-trip transfer from your hotel, a certified ex-military instructor on a range with no public access, and the World Famous All American Hamburger with chips and a drink at the Arizona Last Stop restaurant onsite. All fees and taxes are in; the only thing left off the printed price is gratuities, which are optional. What the base does not fix is how much you shoot, because the ammunition and the weapons are where the tiers live.
The range itself is built for the .50-caliber heavy hardware, the Barrett sniper rifle and the Browning BMG, alongside the Desert Eagle and guns lifted from films like Rambo II, fired full-auto against exploding targets and military-style bunkers. The package you choose, from Bronze through Silver, Gold, Platinum and up to Ultimate, decides which of those guns you put rounds through and how many, and a Non-Shooter Package exists for anyone coming along to watch. The entry fare gets you to the range and fed; the tier you pick decides what you actually fire.
So the question isn't whether to go, it's how much trigger time you're buying.

🤔 Is It Worth It?

Our verdict: What you're really paying for here isn't the trigger time, it's the one-on-one attention of a military instructor who builds the session around you instead of running a group through a script. This is for the person who wants to actually learn to shoot, not just fire a few rounds for a photo. The 5/5 across 620 reviews tells you the coaching lands, which is the whole point of going private.
Worth it if:
  • you want someone watching your stance and correcting it in real time, not waiting your turn behind a line of strangers
  • you're a first-timer who'd rather ask questions freely than feel rushed through a group slot
  • you treat the 4 hours as proper instruction time, not a quick novelty stop between casinos
Skip it if:
  • you just want a loud, fast thrill outdoors, in which case the Half-Day Mojave Desert ATV Adventure at $130 puts you on the dunes instead of a range
  • you'd rather be on the water for the day, where the Emerald Cave Kayak runs the same $99 over a longer 5-6 hours
Choose this over the Nellis Dunes ATV Desert Ride if:
  • you want hands-on coaching that sticks with you, not a 2-hour ride that's over almost as soon as it starts

💡 Insider Tip

LasVegasTour Editorial Review

4.5
LasVegasTour Rating

What you're paying $99 for is access more than firepower: a private outdoor range with full-auto weapons and exploding targets, the kind of setup no indoor Vegas range can legally run. The hotel pickup, lunch at Arizona Last Stop, and four-hour window make it a half-day with no logistics on you. The six packages mean the base price climbs fast once you pick your weapons. Worth it for first-timers who want the desert full-auto experience, not the bargain it first looks like.
