There were 4 Dealers at Lady Luck Casino that wanted to go shoot at a range that was just off the strip to the West. It allowed you to fire rifles. I had and SKS, one of my friends had and AK, and another had an AR, the fourth dealer just wanted to shoot ours.
I had a small Red Toyota Pickup. This was before the age of Tacomas. It was stick shift. So course this is the vehicle that we used to transport everything to the Range. I was 350 and the driver. There was another 350 dealer he had the window. A skinny friend straddled the gear shift. and a medium size friend lay across our laps. Our rifle stuck out the windows. The Bed of the truck had 5 ammo cans of ammo rattling around.
The route we took ran right down the Strip for a mile. From Flamingo rd to Spring Mountain rd. No one blinked an eye. A cop saw us going down the strip and waved at us. We made to the Gun range. Had fun and repeated the path.
Try that these days. The cop would have radioed for Swat and the hotels would implement security measures.
But I can saw we did it in 1993
A thing that would end up with SWAT these day
