e World during WWII, chose your side, the Axis or Allies? If you choose the Axis, you can shoot the German K98, P-08 Luger, P38, or the Japanese Type 99 or Type 38 Arisaka,
If you pick the Allies you can pick from the British SmLE, or the rifles that saved Mother Russia during the Great Patriotic War, the Mosin Nagant 91/30 as seen in the movie Enemy At The Gate, as well as the M44 Carbine. From the Americans, the rifle that was called the greatest battle implement ever invented, the M1 Garand or the Rifle that was carried by the likes of Audie Murphy, the M-1 Carbine. If more recent history appeals to you, you can try your hand at shooting the AR-15, the civilian version of the M-16 and its opponent from the cold war, The AK-47, Try the Spanish CETME, forerunner of many of today’s best battle rifles
If the Middle East is your interest, try your hand with the Israeli UZI,
For something different, try the Rifles of the Citizen Soldiers of Switzerland, who produced the most accurate military arms ever made for standard issue. Shoot the Schmidt-Ruben 1911 Rifle, the K11 Carbine and the K31 Carbiner. If Something more Old School appeals to you, try your hand at Black powder shooting, chose from the Springfield 1863 Musket, the arm that helped to end the US Civil War, or maybe the Pennsylvania Rifle, which is better known as the Kentucky long rifle as carried by Daniel Boone, or you may pick something a little newer in the form of the St. Louis Hawkins as carried by scores of Mountain men who used them to help settle the West. Ever play Cowboys and Indians? Here is your chance to do what you have only seen in the movies, Chose to shoot the Colt Single Action Army aka The Peace Maker aka The Colt 45, You could chose to shoot the Rifle and Pistols carried by Armstrong Custers' Troops at the Battle of The Little Big Horn. The Springfield Model 1873 Carbine or 1873 Rifle and the Colt .45 Peacemaker. For something Western, but a touch more modern, try the Winchester 94, Lever Action Rifle, one of the most popular hunting rifles ever made.
