Shooting Experience for Beginners

Sport shooting is a ton of fun—it sharpens your focus and helps build friendships. But everyone has to start somewhere, and even professional shooters were beginners once. So, it’s totally okay if you feel a little confused, aren’t sure which package to pick, or even how to hold a gun properly. We are here to help you out. Check out the following tips to get ready for your first session!

Pick the Right Package

At Budapest Shooting, we know our customers. Some of our visitors are already pretty familiar with firearms, while others have no idea what the differences are. And then there are those who know pistols and rifles only from video games. Let’s face it. Real-life shooting is way more exciting than anything on your console.

So, how should you get started? Knowing that you probably want to try a wide range of guns, we’ve created nine packages tailored to different preferences. Each one has a specific theme. Some of them are heavily inspired by video games (like Player, Action Hero, or Special Forces), while others give you the chance to try out historical weapons that are no longer in use (WWII or Eastern Bloc packages). Luckily, all of our packages can be upgraded with add-on weapons, so you can create an even more personalized experience, including shotguns or revolvers.

Packages Designed for Beginners

In our experience, it’s usually best for beginners to start with lighter weapons and a wider variety. That’s why we designed the Adrenaline package. And why that name? Well… because it’ll definitely get your heart racing, especially if you’re brand new to shooting.

In this package, you’ll get 8–10 shots with pistols like the CZ P-07 or the GP-K22, and you’ll even get a chance to try the legendary Kalashnikov AK-47 (we do know you’ve always wanted to hold one). In a similar package (like the Rookie) you’ll also get to shoot the AK-47, along with other special guns like the Remington 870 shotgun or the popular Glock 17 pistol.

We’ll Help You Make the Right Choice

Don’t worry if you’re not familiar with these brands—these names might sound totally random until you actually get to try them in real life. That’s where our expert staff comes in. Even though the booking process is completely online, we’re always here to help. Got questions or special requests? Just give us a call. We recommend browsing our website, checking out the descriptions of different weapons, and doing a bit of research on the ones that catch your interest. Once you’re at the range, we’ll walk you through everything step by step, so you’ll have a safe, exciting, and truly memorable experience.
