'Tag Iceman,

In my experience you may visit and shoot. Most ranges will charge you for renting the gun, the ammunition and also a range fee for the day. If you know someone with guns you may shoot them with no problems.

Same thing in German for the guy:

Dann schnell auf deutsch. Es ist ueberhaupt kein problem, in meine erfahrung darfst Du besuchen und schiessen. Die meisten schiessanlagen verlangen waffen miete, muni kosten und dann auch standmiete fuer den tag. Solltest Du jemanden kennen der waffen besitzt darfst Du die ohne probleme schiessen.

Ranges in Las Vegas and Hawaii both are tourist Meccas; ranges there COUNT on foreign nationals wanting to shoot because they cannot do too much of it in their home countries, and advertise all sorts of shooting packages that span from reasonably priced to ridiculously overpriced.

Bottom line, you should have no problem being able to shoot range rental guns, unless the range you go to requires a safety test and you do not pass it.

No problem, provided you meet minimum age requirements, and in most rentals, a second shooter is required.

The Gun Store on Tropicana has package deals for tourists, and you don't need a second shooter. Its a pretty cheap cab ride from the strip. You can shoot all kinds of guns including machine guns.
