I went there 2 years ago, and rifles ran $15-20/mag. Don't remember what belt-fed MGs cost. Around the same per round, I think. Prices, no doubt, have increased since then. I spent $50, which I'd consider the bare minimum. Didn't try many different guns. For a good time figure on $100 or more.


I'm not going this year.

Lat year it was $15 for my 10 yo son to shoot 20 rounds from a Thompson and $15 for me to shoot 30 rounds from a supressed MP5. Oh and $10 for 3 rounds from 50 cal rifle.
There is usually about any gun that you could want to shoot. Not to be missed!!!!

I'm gonna go. My brother said he would pay all my rental fees.

Is this just gun rentals or can you bring your own personal guns? I so, how hard is it to get a spot on the line? Used to come to the Albany MG shoots years ago and was wondering if things have changed.

Thanks
