and i was shooting with my own gun. when i practice at a private range i'll pay € 10.00 for one session.

so for an afternoon fun with some friends for the price less than 2 bell ringings who cares . i'm on holiday and it is better than in bed all day.


Good valid points.
If I was there for the BB Trophy, dont get me wrong, I'd certainly have no problem going along for the day for the crack with the BM's, it would be (most importantly) a good giggle.
And for visitors who never get a chance to fire firearms i can see how it would be a good way to spend an afternoon as a one-off experience.

Just reading those prices came as a bit of a shock, when everything else in LOS seems so much cheaper than the UK
