Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Not shot a firearm for a long, long time and thought it would be fun to try semi & fully auto guns. Wow what a rush, brilliant but over far too quick ( especially when shooting a fully auto , probably 2 seconds to empty the magazine).
A good selection of firearms mainly military but probably won’t get the chance to shoot these all in one go at many other places.

Had a great time at MGA. Everyone one was extremely friendly from the time we got there until we left. Steve was very knowledgeable and helpful the whole time while shooting our guns. Would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to try shooting automatic weapons.

Went in to see about looking at a firearm to Purchase. Four people working behind counter only one pretended she was going to help me until the other three distracted her back to their conversation then she acted as though we were not even there standing in front of them. no other costumers in store and we were invisible. The other business inside the building, Tactical Sht. Both employees were extremely friendly and helpful was like night and day difference. I highly recommend Tactical Sht.

I paid for two of my boys who are avid call of duty fans to have a go at the 3 machine gun experience each. The shooting was safely supervised by Nick who was great and really helped the boys out with instructions and guidance. They both really enjoyed the experience and would definitely want to do it again.

The experience you get from MGA is a life time bragging rights that you shot these awesome firearms. However the cost for those rights are a bit extreme. The cheapest package at $170, shooting 3 guns with 25 rounds each, this experience will take all of 10 minutes at most, realistically 5 min to complete once you are in the the range box. Take it as you will but i thought this was a 1 and done type of priceing schedule. Very tourist bait. As a local in florida i will never go here again.

I’m a Marine Corps Veteran and when I found out that MGA had a fully automatic M-16A1 I was ecstatic, this is the weapon that I was trained with at MCRD Parris Island for Bootcamp over 45 years ago. Firing that weapon on Their range was like I was in a time machine. Their Staff was amazing and were definitely safety conscious to all that entered the range. This Veteran will definitely come back,next time to fire Their M-60 Machine Gun. If You’re a Veteran or not and You’re in the Orlando area by all means stop by there.

Our trip to Machine Gun America was beyond expectations. My son and I both did full mag dumps on numerous fully automatic machine guns. Without a doubt the full mag dump on the AK-47 was my favorite. Enjoyed the visit more than I can state. I highly recommend stopping and giving this a try. I will be back. The entire team at Machine Gun America was professional and informative. Can't stress enough how fun this was! Do it, you won't be dissapointed. Money well spent.

Seriously amazing. Husband found this spot and wanted to go shoot. I couldn't let him have all the fun. The instructors are all vets and took the time to explain and help us with each gun we shot. He was also fun to speak with as well as the lady at the front desk. I highly recommend!

I didn’t get a chance to shoot because as a black person when I walked in, they looked at me like I was ET from another world. They were very rude and you can tell there’s racial tension there. Not a very good location for this type of business because you get a lot of diversity in that area. They need to be out somewhere in the country with the rest of the racist. Never again.

I was given a gift card loaded with enough cash to provide a shooting experience for 2 people. As it turns out the person that gave me the card was a coworker that overheard me talking about wanting to shoot machine guns. He also planned on being my plus one! His wife called me about planning his surprise b-day party and I knew exactly how to get him out of the house. I picked him up and we got there and literally had a "blast". It could not have been a better time. Steven was our range officer and he was great. Very friendly and easy to get along with. I want to come back and bring a friend or two!! Good time!!

Do individuals have their own booth to shoot? My husband wants me to do it too but he's Ex British Mil and has experience but not me. Don't want to look silly. AK 47 is his choice. Thak you so much.

So the shooting room is an open area, however the spot you actually shoot from has walls either side. The people waiting behind the line for there turn will be able to see you. However I wouldn’t worry, was my first time shooting and everyone was very supportive

I saw a billboard in Orlando and was wondering what type of gun and how many rounds that starts at $24.99. I checked your website and couldn't see information regarding the ad.
Written 27 October 2018
I cannot answer the question. There are so many options available. I also paid about $150 for 2 machine guns and the rounds that came with each gun.
