1. Glock 17, AK-47 & Winchester — Hotel Pickup Included
Best for: First-time shooters wanting a hassle-free experience with no transport logistics.
The only Riga indoor shooting tour where hotel pickup is included at a per-person price, this experience collects you from any Riga hotel by private vehicle and returns you afterwards. You fire 3 weapons — Glock 17 (5 shots), AK74 Saiga (5 shots), and Winchester (3 shots) — for 13 rounds total, with a professional English-speaking instructor throughout. At €65 per person, this is the most accessible all-in package in Riga for solo travellers and pairs who don’t want to arrange their own taxi.
2. Extreme Movie Like Shooting — 4 Packages from €40
Best for: Budget-conscious visitors, groups, and anyone who wants to choose their own level of intensity.
The most flexible and lowest entry price of any Riga indoor shooting experience, the Extreme Movie Shooting packages are named after military ranks — Recruit (€40, 3 guns), Sergeant (€60, 3 guns including Winchester), Lieutenant (€95, 4 guns including AK 7.62), and Major General (€200, 7 guns, 63 shots). The movie theming — John McClane, James Bond, Terminator, Clint Eastwood — adds a fun narrative hook that makes it particularly popular for groups and stag parties. Sessions take place at Walters Shooting Range on Meža iela 1A and last approximately 40 minutes. No hotel pickup; a taxi from Old Town costs about €5.
3. Winchester, Glock 17 & Kalashnikov — Latvia’s Largest Arsenal
Best for: Visitors who want the most established, highly-reviewed range in Riga with the widest firearm selection available on-site.
This is Riga’s most reviewed shooting experience on Viator with 151 ratings at a perfect 5.0 — and it’s hosted at Šautuve (Walters Shooting Range), which stocks 47 firearms, making it Latvia’s largest indoor range. The fixed package covers 3 weapons: Winchester pump-action (3 shots), Glock 17 (5 shots), and Kalashnikov AK (3 shots) for 11 rounds. Optional upgrades allow you to add weapons from the 47-gun arsenal on the day. Minimum 2 participants; no hotel pickup. A taxi from Old Town is approximately €5.
4. Riga Shooting Experience with 5 Guns
Best for: Visitors who want the widest weapon variety for a fixed per-person price, and are curious about the Roni G17 carbine conversion.
At €95 per person for 5 firearms and 25 shots, this session offers the most diverse fixed-lineup of any Riga per-person package. The standout is the Roni G17 — a Glock 17 pistol inside a CAA Micro Roni carbine conversion kit that transforms the pistol into a compact tactical carbine. No other Riga package includes this weapon. The full lineup: Walther G22 (5 shots), Roni G17 (5 shots), Mossberg shotgun (5 shots), AK-47 (5 shots), Glock (5 shots). Session runs approximately 50 minutes — slightly longer than the standard 40-minute format — allowing more time per firearm. Meeting point on Daugavgrīvas iela; exact address sent 24 hours before via WhatsApp/SMS.
5. Desert Eagle .357 Magnum, Beretta & Walther GSP
Best for: Handgun enthusiasts and anyone specifically wanting to fire the Desert Eagle .357 Magnum — the most powerful semi-automatic pistol available at any Riga range.
This is Riga’s only shooting package where the Desert Eagle .357 Magnum is a standard inclusion, not an optional upgrade. The all-handgun lineup — Desert Eagle (2 shots), Beretta 92 FS (5 shots), Walther GSP target pistol (5 shots) — makes it a specialist session covering three very different points on the pistol spectrum: brutal power (Desert Eagle), military service reliability (Beretta), and precision target shooting (Walther). At €116 per person for 12 shots, it’s the highest per-shot cost of any Riga package — but the Desert Eagle’s reputation and rarity justify the premium for those specifically drawn to it. Sessions take place at Šautuve, Meža iela 1A.
6. Private Shooting Experience + Abandoned Soviet Bunker
Best for: Couples and small groups wanting the most immersive full-day experience — shooting combined with Cold War history, hotel pickup, and free professional photos.
The most distinctive of all Riga shooting experiences, this tour combines a live shooting session with a visit to an abandoned Soviet-era military bunker — a genuinely unique addition not available on any other Riga range booking. You travel by private air-conditioned van from your hotel, visit the bunker with your guide, then proceed to the shooting range where you fire 4 or 6 firearms. Complimentary photos and videos of your session are included. Two packages: Exotic (4 weapons, €169 per group) and Rambo (6 weapons, €199 per group). For a couple, this works out to roughly €85–€100 per person with pickup, photos, and a history excursion included — compelling value against other options.
7. Clay Pigeon Shooting Near Riga
Best for: Groups wanting an outdoor activity, competitive teams, and anyone wanting a completely different experience to indoor range shooting.
The only outdoor shooting experience available near Riga, clay pigeon shooting takes you 23km east of the city to Silakrogs, where you fire at moving clay disc targets launched into the air — a skill-set entirely distinct from static indoor target shooting. With 145 reviews and a 5.0 rating, it’s the second most reviewed Riga shooting experience on Viator. The session includes 20 rounds per person: 10 practice shots across varying clay trajectories, then a 10-shot competition where points are tallied. Two pricing options: €330 per group (own transport) or €450 per group with private hotel pickup — the transfer must be arranged at least one week in advance.
Shooting in Riga: What to Know Before You Book
Is it legal for tourists to shoot guns in Riga?
Yes. Latvia permits tourists to shoot at licensed indoor ranges and clay pigeon centres. All 7 experiences on this page operate fully legally with professional instructors and certified facilities. You need to be 18 or older and carry a valid passport or national ID card — driver’s licences are not accepted at registration. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs is refused entry without refund.
The two main indoor venues
Šautuve / Walters Shooting Range at Meža iela 1A is Latvia’s largest indoor range with 47 firearms and hosts four of the seven Riga experiences on this page (tours 1, 3, 5, and elements of tour 6). The range is well-established, professionally run, and a short taxi ride from central Riga or Old Town (approximately €5 each way). The 5-gun experience (tour 4) operates from a separate venue on Daugavgrīvas iela in the Kurzemes district, with the exact address sent by WhatsApp 24 hours before.
Which Riga shooting experience is best for beginners?
All 7 experiences welcome beginners — professional instruction and a safety briefing are included in every one. For a first-time shooter, the best starting point depends on budget and how much hassle you want to manage. If you want zero logistics: book the Glock/AK/Winchester with hotel pickup at €65. If you’re price-sensitive and happy to get a taxi: the Extreme Movie Shooting Recruit pack at €40 is the most accessible entry point. If you want the most hands-on coaching with a wider weapon selection: the 5-gun experience at €95 gives the most time per firearm.
Which experiences require a minimum group size?
Only one: the Winchester, Glock 17 & Kalashnikov package (tour 3) requires a minimum of 2 participants. Solo travellers should book tour 2 (Extreme Movie Shooting) or tour 5 (Desert Eagle) instead, or reach out to the operator about joining availability. All other experiences accept solo bookings.
Indoor range vs clay pigeon: which should you choose?
Indoor range shooting involves firing at static paper targets at fixed distances — the focus is on handling, accuracy, and experiencing different weapon types. Clay pigeon shooting requires tracking and leading a fast-moving clay disc launched into the air — it’s technically harder, physically different, and entirely outdoors. If you’ve never shot before, indoor is the more controlled introduction. If you’ve already tried indoor range shooting, clay pigeon at Silakrogs is a compelling next step: different skills, outdoor setting, and a built-in competitive element.
Getting to the Riga shooting ranges
For the three experiences without hotel pickup (Extreme Movie Shooting, Winchester/Glock/Kalashnikov, and Desert Eagle), a taxi from Riga Old Town to Meža iela 1A costs approximately €5 and takes 10–15 minutes. Bolt and FreeNow are widely available in Riga. For the clay pigeon centre at Silakrogs, the journey is approximately 23km east of the city — a taxi costs around €25–30 each way, or you can book the €450 transfer option which includes hotel pickup. The 5-gun experience at Daugavgrīvas iela is slightly further west — a taxi from Old Town is approximately €8–10.
Stag parties and group bookings in Riga
Riga is one of Europe’s most established stag party destinations, and shooting experiences are consistently among the most popular activities. For groups, the Extreme Movie Shooting Major General pack (€200/person, 7 weapons, 63 shots) offers the most dramatic experience per participant. For larger groups wanting to keep costs manageable, the Extreme Movie Shooting Sergeant pack (€60) or Glock/AK/Winchester with pickup (€65) deliver strong value. The Private + Soviet Bunker experience (€169–€199 per group) works best for groups of 2–4 where the group price translates to a competitive per-person cost with premium inclusions.
