Sky Adventures Redefined: Las Vegas Helicopter Gun Range

Certified range safety officer guides a guest during pre-flight safety checks at Gunship Helicopters before an aerial shooting experience in the sky in the Mojave Desert near Las Vegas.

Welcome to the Only Gun Range in the Sky

Las Vegas is known for pushing boundaries—wild shows, world-class nightlife, and unforgettable entertainment. But if you’re looking to step beyond the predictable Strip scene and experience something truly extraordinary, it’s time to take your adventure to the sky.

At Gunship Helicopters, we offer something no other destination in the country can match: a gun range in the sky. That’s right. You’re not just visiting a traditional outdoor shooting range—you’re strapping into an open-door tactical helicopter, taking flight over the Mojave Desert, and firing fully automatic machine guns from 800 feet above the ground high in the sky.

This is the ultimate aerial gun range experience, and it’s only available here, just outside Las Vegas.

What Is the Gun Range in the Sky?

The “gun range in the sky” isn’t a nickname. It’s a literal experience—one that combines aviation, firepower, and extreme adventure in a way that redefines what a shooting range can be.

Here’s what you can expect from your helicopter shooting experience:

  • Aboard a customized military-style helicopter with open doors
  • Fire from mounted M249 SAW, M240, or the M134 minigun
  • Aim and shoot at real desert targets across a 71-acre private aerial range
  • Receive full support from certified range safety officers throughout
  • Add-on options include video packages and luxury transport

There is nothing else like this in Las Vegas—or anywhere else in the country. You’re not watching from a distance. You’re in the action.

Why Shoot From a Helicopter?

Because it’s the most thrilling, immersive, and cinematic firearm experience in America. That’s why.

Shooting at a static range is exciting—but shooting while flying in the sky over rugged desert terrain with the wind in your face and the rotor pounding above you? That’s an entirely different level.

Here’s Why Guests Love It:

  • It’s bucket-list material for firearm fans and thrill-seekers alike
  • It turns a basic Las Vegas itinerary into a once-in-a-lifetime memory
  • You get to handle military-grade weaponry with professional guidance
  • It’s perfect for bachelor/bachelorette parties, VIP group adventures, and corporate team building events
  • It makes for unmatched social content and video footage

This isn’t simulated. This isn’t a video game. It’s real. And once you experience it, you’ll never forget it.
