3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure

The most unusual way to leave the Las Vegas Strip is with a ride into the desert to fire a Glock, MP59, and UZI under professional range supervision. This is a three-hour outing at Pro Gun Club, with 55 rounds included and a possible car explosion to add a bit of movie-set drama.

I like the hotel pickup and drop-off, which removes the need to arrange a taxi or rental car. I also like the desert mountain setting and the easygoing help provided by the driver and guides, including Mark, who is singled out for his friendly spirit. The main consideration is price: at $189 per person, this is a specialized activity rather than a cheap add-on.

Leaving Las Vegas for the desert mountains

This experience begins with pickup at your hotel on the Las Vegas Strip or in Downtown. You ride in a luxury 2Vegas vehicle toward the desert mountain range, trading casino lights for open Nevada scenery.

That change of setting is part of the appeal. Las Vegas is often treated as a city sealed inside resorts, but the surrounding desert is close at hand. The drive gives you a quick look at the dry mountain country that frames the city, and it makes the shooting range feel like a separate outing rather than another attraction inside a casino complex.

The full experience lasts about three hours. That is long enough to include transportation, safety direction, and the shooting session without taking over your entire day. I would still avoid booking it immediately before a show, dinner reservation, or airport transfer. Pickup times and the drive itself can affect the exact schedule.

Water and soda are included. That is a small detail, but it matters in the desert, especially if you are visiting during a hot part of the year. Keep your day comfortable and drink some water before and during the outing.

Pro Gun Club and the three-firearm session

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - Pro Gun Club and the three-firearm session

The main stop is Pro Gun Club. Here, the experience is built around three firearms rather than a single short target session.

You begin with a Glock pistol and five rounds. This is the briefest part of the shooting program, but it gives you a chance to handle a familiar-style handgun before moving to the automatic weapons.

The next two portions provide 25 rounds each with a fully automatic MP59 and a fully automatic UZI. That gives you 50 rounds with automatic firearms, compared with five rounds from the Glock. If the automatic shooting is the reason you are booking, this balance matters. Most of the included ammunition is reserved for the MP59 and UZI, not the pistol.

The total comes to 55 rounds. That is a useful figure to know when comparing this outing with other shooting packages. You are not paying only for a quick trigger pull and a short photo stop, but neither should you expect an all-day firearms course. The package is designed as a compact introduction to several types of shooting.

The supplied information does not specify target design, exact firing positions, or the number of staff assigned to each group. The guides are described as informative and patient, so you can expect direction during the session, but you should ask the operator any detailed safety or firearm questions before booking.

Why the automatic weapons are the main attraction

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - Why the automatic weapons are the main attraction

The fully automatic MP59 and UZI are the heart of this experience. The Glock adds variety, but the two automatic weapons account for nearly all the ammunition and are the part most likely to make the outing feel different from a standard range visit.

I would think of the session as entertainment with a firearms theme, not as formal training. You get to try several weapons under supervision, but the available information does not promise a lesson in marksmanship, firearm maintenance, or advanced technique.

That distinction helps set fair expectations. If you want a structured course, detailed instruction, or a long practice session, ask for more information before paying. If you want to try automatic weapons in a controlled range setting while visiting Las Vegas, the package is more directly suited to you.

The guides also appear to shape the quality of the day. One guide named Mark is praised for his great spirit, and another guide is described as informative and patient. Those personal touches matter in an activity that could otherwise feel mechanical. A calm instructor can make the first few minutes easier, especially if you have never fired a firearm before.

The desert scenery adds more than a backdrop

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - The desert scenery adds more than a backdrop

The setting outside Las Vegas gives this tour a stronger sense of place than an indoor attraction. You see the desert mountain range around the city, then spend time at a range where the open surroundings become part of the memory.

The desert is not a side trip with a long sightseeing program. You are going to Pro Gun Club to shoot, not to hike or study geology. Still, the ride out and the mountain setting break up the resort routine.

One especially memorable feature may be the sight of a car exploding. That detail appears among the strongest impressions associated with the outing, and it gives the session a distinctly Nevada, action-film flavor. Because the supplied details do not explain exactly when or how it happens, ask the operator if this feature is important to you.

Do not book this as a scenic desert tour. The scenery is a valuable addition, but the firearms session is the purpose of the trip.

Same base, a completely different kind of day out of Las Vegas:

Is $189 a fair price?

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - Is $189 a fair price?

At $189 per person, the cost is not low. The value depends on what you would otherwise spend for transportation, range access, ammunition, and the chance to fire the specific weapons included here.

You receive hotel pickup and drop-off, transportation in a luxury 2Vegas vehicle, the desert drive, access to Pro Gun Club, 55 rounds, guidance, water, and soda. That makes the price easier to understand than a simple ammunition-only comparison.

I would call it reasonable for someone who specifically wants the full package. The automatic MP59 and UZI are the key cost drivers in practical terms, while the transport saves you the trouble of arranging your own way to the range.

For a couple or family group, the total can climb quickly. The activity is not described as a low-cost group attraction, and the available information does not mention discounts for children, larger parties, or multiple bookings. Compare the final cost for everyone in your party before committing.

The maximum group size is listed as 200 people. That is a high possible limit, so do not assume you will receive a private or small-group session. A large capacity may not affect your actual outing, but you should ask about group organization if a personal experience matters to you.

Who will enjoy this outing most

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - Who will enjoy this outing most

This experience fits adults and older visitors who want to try something unusual during a Las Vegas stay. It suits people who are curious about automatic firearms, enjoy a little desert scenery, and prefer an organized pickup rather than finding the range on their own.

It may also work well for a group looking for a shared activity away from casinos. The upbeat driver and guide interaction can make the ride as enjoyable as the range itself. The strong praise for helpful transportation and patient instruction suggests that first-time participants may feel supported.

I would think twice if firearms make you uncomfortable, if you want a quiet sightseeing day, or if you dislike fixed group activities. The experience is centered on shooting, and the price is hard to justify if the weapons themselves do not interest you.

Families should check age requirements directly with 2Vegas.com. The available information says most people can participate and that service animals are allowed, but it does not provide a minimum age or specific rules for minors.

Practical details before you book

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - Practical details before you book

Pickup is available from all Strip and Downtown hotels. If you are staying somewhere outside those areas, do not assume pickup is included. Confirm the meeting arrangement with the operator before booking.

Your confirmation arrives at the time of booking, and the activity accepts a mobile ticket. Keep the confirmation accessible on your phone and make sure your hotel information is correct.

The tour is offered in English. If you need instructions in another language, ask before reserving. Firearms activities depend on clear communication, so this is an important point rather than a minor convenience.

Service animals are allowed, and most people can participate. Those statements do not replace checking individual needs with the provider. The supplied information does not spell out rules for mobility equipment, pregnancy, medical conditions, or specific firearm restrictions.

The activity is booked, on average, about 20 days ahead. That suggests you should not leave it until the last minute if the date matters, especially during a busy Las Vegas visit. Book early enough to fit it around your other plans, but remember the cancellation deadline.

You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the experience starts. Within 24 hours, the amount paid is not refunded, and changes are not accepted. The cutoff follows local Las Vegas time.

How this compares with a typical Las Vegas attraction

3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure - How this compares with a typical Las Vegas attraction

Many Las Vegas activities keep you inside the resort corridor. This one gives you transportation, open desert views, and a hands-on activity in one half-day package.

The tradeoff is focus. You will not get a broad tour of the city or a long desert exploration. The sightseeing portion is mainly the ride to and from Pro Gun Club, while the range session takes center stage.

That narrow focus is a strength if you know what you want. You do not waste time on filler stops. It is a weakness if you hoped for a full excursion into the surrounding desert.

I also like that the program includes three firearms rather than repeating one format. The Glock provides a short pistol segment, while the MP59 and UZI supply the bulk of the shooting. It gives you clear variety without making the schedule overly long.

My booking advice

I would book the 3 Gun Desert Machine Gun Shooting Adventure if you want a focused, organized way to fire a Glock, MP59, and UZI outside Las Vegas. The hotel transport, desert mountain setting, included refreshments, and helpful guide service make the package easier and more memorable than arranging the pieces yourself.

I would skip it if $189 feels high for a three-hour activity or if you want more time for sightseeing. Before booking, confirm the exact pickup time, any age requirements, and whether the car explosion is included on your chosen departure.

For the right person, this is a strong change of pace from casinos, shows, and pool decks. You leave the Strip, try something many visitors never do, and return with a very Nevada-style story.
