Feel the rush as you fire an AK-47 or pump-action shotgun under expert guidance at Gdańsk’s shooting range. With private hotel pickup and all gear included, you’ll handle legendary firearms and leave with your own target as a keepsake — plus plenty of laughs.
The first thing I noticed was the echo — sharp, metallic, bouncing off the walls as someone fired before us. We’d just arrived at the shooting range in Gdańsk (our driver quietly pointed out historic shipyard buildings along the way, which I appreciated). Inside, the air smelled of oil and something spicy — probably gunpowder. I’d never held a real firearm before. My hands felt awkward when our instructor handed me the AK-47. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, everyone’s nervous.” That reassurance helped more than I expected.
We began slowly. The instructor — Piotr, who spoke English but occasionally slipped into Polish when excited — showed us how to stand and aim properly. When I pulled the trigger on the Mossberg shotgun, my whole shoulder jolted back. It was loud enough to make me flinch even with ear protection on. My friend tried the Glock next to me and laughed at how small it felt after the shotgun. You get to keep your paper target afterward; mine looked like modern art (not in a good way). Still, there’s something oddly satisfying about seeing those holes you made yourself.
I didn’t expect to enjoy it so much. The experience felt safe but relaxed — Piotr kept joking about Polish action movies (which apparently are a thing?). On the ride back to our hotel, we compared shoulder bruises and debated who had better aim. If you want a unique day trip in Gdańsk beyond museums or amber shops, this is it. Just remember your ID — they do check.
