Really wanna take my brother and a few of his buddies to a live fire range where they could get off a few rounds from a few automatic weapons.

Is there such a place I could do this?

If you are serious google "machine gun shoot". There are several machine gun shoots around Ohio. Some gun owners will let you shoot their guns. Bring your check book it's not cheap.

I will travel anywhere in Ohio if there is such a place, and I already googled and did see lots of places in Arizona.

You will not find any place in Ohio that will rent Auto Weapons ... not going to happen

If you have one or know of someone who does and is willing to let you use it, then depending on the weapon and the range steel ..that range will let you shoot.

Some outside ranges will also let you shoot but most outside ranges are club member only....

Since you used the magic word ("pay"), just come on up to where I live. Pay in advance. One quick warning. I'm not licensed or anything, so I'm sure this is a bit illegal. If authorities do come, I'll immediately say I don't know you and that I think you might be a secret terrorist cell. Nothing personal; just trying to make sure I keep the heat off me.

Weather's kind of bad here, now, so I'll expect to see you tomorrow. Bring like $500 or so. And beer. Maybe a pizza.

Indoor. It's like $30 to rent the gun and $10 per magazine.

You can travel to Steubenville if you own your own gun,They shoot automatic weapons on the hilltop just about every day.They do have a policy regarding gun fire in the city limits and you must agree to not hold the city responsible for any injuries that are caused by negligence by you or other residents of the hilltop.


Hours of operation:
10:00pm - 4:00am Monday - Saturday
11:00pm - 2:00am Sunday

lol I second that. I have a 120mm mortar that can damn near take out a football field. That's enough firepower for me.

I melted a 50 Cal barrel once in a firefight outside ChuChi ....

You can have the 50 Cal but to hold a 60 cal and rip throw a ammo box of rounds is a dream come true.
However I loved my Thompson Grease Gun .45 Cal 20 round clip was just fun to shot .... I wish I had one now... ( I'm looking)

It is for part of my brother's bachelor party weekend. I am not interested in joining the military for the sole purpose of letting my brother and friends have a good time one weekend.

thanks for calling me a pussy though. I am sure your manhood hangs to your knees.
