One of the largest arsenals in the country

Battlefield Vegas offers over 1,000 different weapons systems — handguns and pistols, fully automatic rifles, sub-machine guns, belt-fed machine guns, and even .50 caliber weapons. With indoor and outdoor ranges on site, there’s room to shoot pretty much anything you can imagine, which is exactly why it earns its “#1 shooting range” reputation.

Fire the M-134 Mini-Gun

The rare, roaring M-134 — better known as the Mini-Gun — is one of the signature experiences here, and it’s available daily. It’s the kind of thing most people only ever see on a screen, and getting behind it is the moment everyone talks about on the ride back to the hotel.

Packages for every kind of shooter

Rather than guess at what to shoot, you can pick a themed package built around a lineup of weapons. Fan favorites include the Black Ops Gamer Experience, The SWAT Experience, the Seal Team Six Experience, The Operator, the Modern War Gamer, the Sniper Experience, the Four Star General (built around America’s best belt-fed machine guns), and video-game-inspired packages like Escape from Tarkov and Warzone. Prefer to build your own? You can also choose weapons a la carte. Tip: Groups of six or more can ask about the group shooting packages.

No experience required

You do not need to know a thing about guns to have a great time. Many of the instructors have real military backgrounds, and they walk you through everything one-on-one, at your pace. There are beginner-friendly packages built specifically for people picking up a firearm for the very first time, so it’s an easy yes even if you’re a little nervous.

Free Humvee shuttle from the Strip

Part of the fun starts before you even fire a shot: Battlefield Vegas offers a complimentary Humvee pickup from Las Vegas Strip hotels. It’s a short hop — they’re only about a block off the Strip — so it’s an easy add-on to any trip. Tip: Call ahead to arrange your shuttle so a Humvee is ready when you are.
