Ready for some shooting? Machine Guns 4 Fun!


The exhilaration of firing a fully automatic weapon is now available adjacent to the south end of the Las Vegas Strip as Machine Guns 4 Fun announces the opening of a 12-lane, state-of-the-art shooting range. The venue, located at 5155 S. Dean Martin Dr., just off West Tropicana Ave., caters to both tourists and locals alike. Novices and gun enthusiasts can take aim with high-powered rifles and handguns under the guidance of experienced range safety officers. Machine Guns 4 Fun offers guests the chance to shoot such weapons as an AK-47, Remington 700, M4 Carbine, Uzi and Thompson Machine Gun, among others.  

 “We have created an environment built around excitement and safety that provides a great experience to shooters of all skill levels,” says Mark Cole, owner of Machine Guns 4 Fun and Guns & Ammo Garage. “Pulling the trigger on these high performance weapons is as thrilling as hitting the jackpot. You feel an amazing adrenaline rush as each round leaves the chamber, whether this is your first time shooting or you have guns of your own.”

Highly trained range safety officers provide briefings before each guest steps into the range and are stationed within arms’ reach as the weapon is being fired. First-time shooters are taken through the safety procedures and are made to feel comfortable before putting on their eye and ear protection. Machine Guns 4 Fun also offers safety and concealed weapons certification classes.

“The safety of our guests is the top priority at Machine Guns 4 Fun,” says Gary Martinez, range master at Machine Guns 4 Fun. “Our Range Safety Officers are highly proficient in all of the weapons we offer and their expertise helps the guests to understand the safest ways to handle a weapon, providing a more enjoyable experience.”

Machine Guns 4 Fun is open for individuals and groups alike, including bachelor and bachelorette parties, corporate challenges and team building events. Weapon packages include “Zombie Hunter,” “Call of Duty” and “S.W.A.T.” There is also an introductory package for newcomers. 

The new venue also houses Guns & Ammo Garage, a gun store adjacent the shooting range that offers firearms for sale as well as ammunition, eye protection and Machine Guns 4 Fun merchandise. Zombie-themed targets are available for purchase and can be used at Machine Guns 4 Fun.

Machine Guns 4 Fun is located at 5155 S. Dean Martin Dr, just south of Tropicana Ave. and is open seven days a week from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. For more information, call 702-900-GUNS (4867) or visit www.MachineGuns4Fun.com.

Martin Lawrence Galleries celebrates Muhammad Ali's 70th B-Day Celebration!



In honor of Muhammad Ali’s 70th birthday celebration in Las Vegas, visit the Martin Lawrence Galleries located inside The Forum Shops at Caesars.  Fans of the legendary boxer and art aficionados will find that the gallery is home to a trio of Ali images by famed artist, Andy Warhol.

Among the biggest privately-owned art galleries in the world, the new Martin Lawrence Galleries inside The Forum Shops has more than 26,000 square feet of gallery, exhibition and event space. From Rembrant to Picasso to Warhol and Chagall, Martin Lawrence Galleries brings Pop art, Modern art and the Masters to The Forum Shops at Caesars.

Legendary boxer Muhammad Ali is immortalized into pop culture by artist, Andy Warhol.  This silk-screened image (acrylic on canvas) of Ali’s profile is part of a series called "The Ten Greatest Athletes," commissioned by Frederick R. Weisman in the late 1970s.

“Do I look fearless?” Ali rumbled. “Very fearless,” Warhol replied.  Ali poses with his fist directly under his chin, staring straight into the viewer’s eyes.
