Seventy-eight dollars included the rental of the three weapons, 150 rounds of 9-millimeter ammunition (two 100-round boxes that I emptied using the Beretta and two pre-loaded magazines for the Uzi, 25 each), five shotgun shells, five targets (one of which I didn't use), the entrance fee, and the rental of eye and ear protection. We did get a military discount because my dad is in the service and they ended up waiving the rental fee for the handgun and the shotgun because we also rented the Uzi. The make most of their money on ammunition sales since you are not allowed to shoot ammo purchased off-site.
Oh yeah and the day kicked ass. It was my first time shooting, but by the end of the day, I was shooting about just as good as my dad did with the Beretta and due to my extensive lol-internets knowledge I pretty much understood exactly what I was doing despite the fact that this was the first time I had ever fired any real guns.
I'm planning on going back again before school starts, perhaps to try out a pump gun, or maybe just laze some targets with a .22 carbine, because the ammo is about one-third the cost of the 9-millimeter. Anyway I'm hanging up the man target in my room for the enjoyment of my sure-to-be-liberal James Madison College roommate.
These are my first five shots with the Beretta. As you can see two of them didn't even hit the paper. Within a few minutes I made every shot hit the paper and thirteen out of the ninety-five I shot hit the bulls-eye.
