Do they have "lane guns"?

I want to shoot a gun. I just want to know what it is like, how good of a shot I am without any training. But, obviously, I don't own a gun. Do I have to buy a gun to go shoot one at a range? Do they have guns there I can "rent" for use at the range?
 
If it's a well run quality range, they will have weapons for rent. Especially if the Range is part of a firearms store. In fact, the local Army Fort is having a retired military day for us tomorrow, with an open range so we can all blast the "enemy" silhouette targets again with old fashion 1960s M-14s.
 
I went to a shooting range in Toronto once, they let you take a weapon and fire off about 10-12 rounds just to see if you liked it and might be interested in joining the club, buying a gun, whatever. It's basically just a salesman's tool. I was handed a Glock 9mm, but I kept getting a chimney. I was told I had a strange arch in my wrist that didn't suit the Glock, my recoil kept chasing the shell out of the gun. They gave me what I think they called a Czechoslovakian P-9, and it was smooth sailing from there.

I discovered, that yes...it is about penis size. Have never been back.

Edit: It was one of these; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springfield_Armory_P9
 
Open your phone book and call a local gun range.

There are ranges in Orlando and Vegas that will even rent machine guns.
 
oh definately, A number of ranges rent firearms as well as sell them, do you want to fire a handgun or a rifle?
 
Beats me. Here, they issue them to you once you cross the state line in a moving van.

Can't be too careful in case the dammed Yankees decide to invade. :mad:

CD,
will shoot anything that looks at her funny
 
Lane guns...I had no idea what that meant, I thought this was gonna be about guns being mounted over major highways ready to shoot drivers who change lanes irresponsibly. :guffaw:

If that was true, these would be the only handguns in existance.
Naw, this would:
