Where in the UK?

Next year I'll be moving to the UK.

My dream is to fire a real sniper rifle and try different scopes. For example fire an M98B, M40A5, M200 Intervention, the british L115A1, or the chinese made anti material AMR-2 bolt action rifle AND my number one semi auto beast legendary one and only M82A3.

So is there such a place ( shooting field ) in the UK where I can try out weapons like these? I just wanna feel the gun.

Too many psychopaths

fully armed...no thx. I don't want to hurt/kill people or animals, all I want is to feel the recoil of an M82A3, hear the sound of it.. ahh yeah I just wanna shoot objects.

 

Yeah, we dont do that here, your lucky to get a .22 at most places

 

The US is the place to do that, with gun ranges and stuff

 

Too many psychopaths? where are you from OP

You do know that ~4% (1 out of 25-30) of all people are psychopaths (or have tendencies), and there is no regional preference for that

there are ranges which rent guns but you usually have to be part of their gun club, or know someone with a firearms license and owns their own land to be able to fire their firearms, as they are rather limited, as firearms are mostly used for humane dispatch and hunting rather than recreationally, and like the guns you've listed almost no one owns one as they are absurdly exspensive, like a L115A1 which is a arctic warfare magnum, retails for £6500 with no optics, and rifles like a mosin nagant costs about £400-500, and while we don't have any calibre restrictions mosts rifles are .22LR. .223, .303, and .308 as they are the most useful.

 

you need to do some research as you obviously know nothing of firearms laws in great britain, as semi-auto centerfire rifles are illegal and are left with bolt action and straight-pull rifles, .22LR is the largest caliber for semi-auto rifles, and shotguns are only allow a capacity of 2+1 on a shotgun license, and there are no pistols except for northern ireland and there they are still restricted.

You might be able to on mainland Europe somewhere, which is handily close by. I know firing AK-47s is popular with stag parties visiting eastern europe.

 

You could go clay pigeon shooting if a shotgun would slake your thirst? Plenty of places offer that.
