These pictures make me really want to go there next time I pass through Vegas.

The website: (Yes, you can rent a minigun)

Has anyone ever been there? Was it a good experience? I know Dragonman's has their machine gun shoot, but it seems like there are a lot more options here and a more comfortable environment.
I've never been but have heard very good reviews from people who have been.
David "Guido" from New Frontier Armory is a part owner and he's been a pretty good guy to do business with, although he's always rubbing the amount of class 3 stuff he deals with in our faces... :)
They say location is everything - nowhere else in the country could you have a business like that and clean up financially like those guys do. It's pretty amazing all the way around.

200 bucks for 100 rounds. At 4k rounds a minute you'll pull the trigger for a little over a second. Seems like a giant waste of money. Hell, light the money on fire and it will last longer.

It's only considered robbery if people aren't giving up their money willingly. [Neene3]
If I had just won some money in Vegas, I might be inclined to throw down a few hundred bucks to shoot a minigun and some others like the Thompson, MP40, and STG44.
If nothing else, It's fun to look at the photos of their "gun safe" (using that word loosely).

Battlefield is great!
Bunch of the nicest guys I've ever dealt with. We had our wedding reception there a couple years ago. They were more than accomadating, I think they were also pretty excited about having a party of 40 or so come through, at least half of them girls in little black dresses.
By the end of our selected ammo and gun pile, they were just bringing other guns out from the back for us to try, with ammo.
After the shooting was done they insisted on taking us back to the hotel in the HMMV, also insisted on getting the live, not airsoft photo op, m249 for the turret. And a cruise up the strip with a stop at the Las Vegas sign for more pics.
One of my favorite pics was down the 249, down the strip, first person shooter style.

Is anybody else not able to see the pics?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE post some pics!

He already has. Maybe if you start spending 17 hours a day browsing the site, you'd have seen them.
I spend close to that but haven't seen the pics. Link or more pics would be superb!
I'm not adding another hour daily for anybody. BTW, Machine Gun Tours has an awesome selection of full-badass every year at the annual Freedom Shoot at Pawnee.

3500 to crush a car with a tank?
I guess it is cool to have the option.
I love capitalism. :D

Ahhhhh, NOW I see the infamous pics! That's really awesome. The photo looking down from the turret is epic.
