Bride and groom pose in front of a tactical helicopter at Gunship Helicopters’ desert landing zone after their unique Las Vegas helicopter wedding experience.

Romantic dinners, spa getaways, and sunset walks are great—but what if you and your partner want something bolder, wilder, and completely unforgettable? Calling all couples to experience this once in a lifetime adventure. If you’re the kind of couple that craves excitement, adrenaline, and adventure over rose petals and quiet jazz, Gunship Helicopters in Las Vegas delivers the ultimate date idea.

Imagine this: you and your partner, strapped into a tactical helicopter, flying low over the Mojave Desert. The wind is rushing past, your pulse is pounding—and you’re both firing fully automatic machine guns at real desert targets from the open doors of a gunship. This isn’t a fantasy. It’s a real, legal, professionally guided adventure—and it’s quickly becoming one of the most extreme couples activities in Las Vegas.

Here’s why thrill-seeking duos are trading roses for rifles and trying the most adrenaline-charged date on Earth.


Why Settle for Ordinary When You Can Unleash Firepower Together?

Sure, champagne and caviar have their place—but when you’re an adventure-loving couple, nothing says “bonding” like hitting targets from a helicopter while flying over a 71-acre private range.

Whether you’re celebrating:

  • A honeymoon
  • A birthday or anniversary
  • A just-because-we’re-awesome weekend getaway

…a Gunship Helicopters date is the kind of shared experience that fuses fun, adrenaline, teamwork, and unforgettable memories into one epic outing.

You won’t just talk about it—you’ll brag about it for years.


Shoot Fully Automatic Machine Guns as a Couple

This is not a theme park simulation. This is the real deal.

You and your partner will each have the chance to fire military-grade, fully automatic weapons from a tactical helicopter—real firearms used by elite military and special forces around the world.

Weapons include:

  • M249 SAW
  • M240
  • M4A1
  • MP5
  • M134 Minigun (six-barrel rotary)
  • Barrett .50 Cal Sniper Rifle

You’ll be flying with the doors open, wearing full tactical gear, and unloading rounds at target arrays set up across the Mojave Desert. It’s one of the most unique shared adrenaline experiences in the U.S., and it’s only 45 minutes outside Las Vegas.


 A New Way to Bond Through Adventure

Adventurous couples often say they feel closest when they’re doing something bold together—skydiving, ziplining, climbing, racing. That shared vulnerability and exhilaration creates deep connection and lifelong memories.

Gunship Helicopters takes that to a whole new level. From the moment you arrive, you’re immersed in an action-packed environment. You’ll:

  • Suit up in tactical gear
  • Get a full safety briefing side by side
  • Cheer each other on from the air
  • Share an experience few couples will ever attempt

Whether it’s your first date or your fiftieth anniversary, this is not your typical couples activity.


 Professionally Run & Beginner Friendly

Worried about never having fired a weapon? Don’t be.

The entire Gunship Helicopters experience is designed to be safe, accessible, and professionally managed, even if you’ve never handled a firearm before. All participants go through:

  • A pre-flight safety briefing
  • On-site gear fitting and safety equipment orientation
  • Step-by-step instructions on weapon handling
  • In-flight coaching by trained range safety officers

Couples consistently say they feel empowered, safe, and confident during the entire experience. It’s a perfect fit for adventurous beginners and experienced marksmen alike.


More Than a Shooting Tour—It’s a Full Adventure Package

While the helicopter shooting is the main event, Gunship Helicopters offers a full adventure package that makes the day feel like a curated VIP experience. You can add:

  • Ground shooting before or after your flight
  • Luxury transportation from your hotel or resort
  • GoPro footage and professional photo packages
  • Custom ammo upgrades and firearm selections

Want to propose mid-adventure? Celebrate a major milestone? Or just capture the moment with high-quality video? The staff is happy to help you customize the experience for your goals.


Capture Every Heart-Pounding Moment

What happens in Vegas… shouldn’t stay in Vegas—not when you’ve got a GoPro strapped to your gear and professional footage capturing every second of your desert shooting adventure.

Every couples package can include:

  • Action video footage of the flight
  • Pre- and post-flight photos in tactical gear
  • Aerial shots with the desert as your backdrop

You’ll go home with proof that your love story has major firepower.


Escape the Strip, Embrace the Wild

While the Las Vegas Strip is exciting, it’s also crowded, loud, and—let’s face it—a little repetitive. If you’re craving open skies, raw energy, and a real break from the norm, Gunship Helicopters offers the perfect escape.

The 71-acre private aerial gun range, nestled in the Mojave Desert near Sandy Valley, Nevada, is just 45 minutes from the Strip, but it feels like another world. It’s wild, rugged, and designed for unforgettable adventure.


Perfect for Any Adventure-Loving Couple

This experience is tailor-made for couples who:

  • Travel to create lasting memories
  • Prefer thrill over tradition
  • Bond best during extreme adventures
  • Love to break the mold

Whether you’re into tactical sports, military history, extreme outdoor recreation, or just love trying something new, this helicopter shooting date is a relationship milestone you’ll remember forever.
