Give Your Adventure a Bigger Story
A grizzly’s roar. A viper’s strike. A ghost’s quiet presence. Each firearm brings a different personality to your desert adventure. Which will you experience?
Try something new—or enjoy additional rounds with a favorite from your included package. Prices below are per shooting experience.
GRIZZLY
Browning M1919 • 7.62×51
Big, imposing, and impossible to ignore. Grizzly earns its name the moment this vehicle-mounted legend begins to roar. Take your place behind the belt-fed Browning and experience its deep, rhythmic thunder—a larger-than-life encounter with a WWII-era icon.
25-round belt | $99
VIPER
MCR060 • 5.56 • Belt-Fed Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW)
Lean profile. Rapid strikes. Viper brings its name to life as the ammunition belt feeds and individual shots become a full-auto rhythm. With a 50-round belt, this modern squad automatic weapon delivers an experience with some serious bite.
50-round belt | $135
RAPTOR
SIG MCX Spear-LT • 5.56
Sleek lines and a predatory profile give Raptor its name. This modern SIG looks poised for action before you ever step up to the firing line. Then comes the full-auto experience—the moment its sharp looks become sound, movement, and an unforgettable grin.
25 rounds | $89
WAR WOLF
Spike’s Tactical M4 • 5.56
Every pack needs a signature howl. War Wolf is ours: the unmistakable M4 experience, brought to life on a desert range. Feel its full-auto rhythm with a 25-round magazine, or choose the 60-round drum and give this wolf more room to howl.
25 rounds | $65
60-round drum | $135
OUTLAW
AK-47 • 7.62×39
Rugged looks. A rebellious streak. No polished manners. Outlaw wears its personality in that unmistakable curved magazine and instantly recognizable profile. Bring an action-movie legend into your own desert story and discover what gives the AK its enduring attitude.
25 rounds | $70
PHANTOM
M4 • .300 Blackout • Suppressed
Picture the shadowy arrival of a movie’s covert operator. Phantom brings that intrigue to the firing line with a suppressor and a distinctly different voice. It isn’t movie-silent, but hearing and feeling the suppressed .300 Blackout gives this mysterious character a presence all its own.
20 rounds | $75
SLEDGEHAMMER
HK G3 • 7.62×51
The name tells you what to expect: a solid thump and a commanding report. Sledgehammer brings the substantial feel of a full-power battle rifle to your adventure. Experience the HK G3 and discover why this one called for a name with some weight behind it.
20 rounds | $70
OLD LION
FN FAL • 7.62×51
Picture an old lion rising to its feet: dignified, imposing, and still possessing a magnificent roar. That’s the character of the FN FAL. Its classic lines speak to another era; its full-power report makes the experience unmistakably present. Meet a legend that still knows how to command attention.
20 rounds | $70
JUDGEMENT
Barrett M99 • .50 BMG
The name comes from the sense of finality in its report. A deep, commanding boom. A pressure wave you feel. Then the realization that you just fired a Barrett .50 BMG. Judgement makes two shots feel like the defining scene of your entire adventure.
2 rounds | $45
WARHAMMER
M4 • .50 Beowulf
Imagine a mighty hammer in a familiar package. Warhammer takes the recognizable M4 shape and gives it the big-bore personality of .50 Beowulf. Its bold report and substantial feel turn a short burst-fire experience into a memory with weight behind it.
7 rounds | $60
GHOST
HK MP5 / MP5K • 9mm
Ghost takes its name from the shadowy world of covert-operations thrillers. Compact and instantly recognizable to action fans, the MP5 family brings that screen presence into your hands. Step up, experience its full-auto rhythm, and turn a familiar movie silhouette into your own memory.
25 rounds | $70
BULLDOG
HK UMP • .45
Stocky build. Broad shoulders. More personality than its size suggests. Bulldog brings that same muscular character to the firing line in the compact HK UMP. Experience its .45-caliber voice and discover a small package with a very noticeable bark.
25 rounds | $70
YELLOWJACKET
Uzi • 9mm
Small package. Sudden buzz. An experience that gets your attention. Yellowjacket earns its name when the compact Uzi comes alive in full auto. This unmistakable action-movie classic brings a burst of excitement that will stay with you long after the buzzing stops.
25 rounds | $70
OLD GLORY
M1 Garand • .30-06
Old Glory evokes the flag, the history, and the generations who carried this American classic. Settle behind the wood stock and experience the deliberate rhythm of a WWII-era rifle. Each shot offers a tangible connection to history that a display case simply can’t provide.
5 rounds | $55
BIG IRON
S&W • .500 Magnum
Picture the larger-than-life revolver from a Western legend—then give it a modern .500 Magnum personality. Big Iron earns its name before the first shot, with an imposing size you have to see up close. Its booming report supplies the next chapter of the story.
3 rounds | $35
THE LAST WORD
Desert Eagle • .50 AE
Every epic movie needs a memorable closing line. The Last Word delivers yours with the unmistakable silhouette and commanding report of a Desert Eagle .50 AE. Give this Hollywood icon a turn on the firing line and finish your adventure with an exclamation point.

Do you provide Hotel/Resort pickup?
We do not offer guest transportation at this time because most guests prefer to arrange for their own transportation. There are several good reasons for that. Most of our guests want to enjoy a relaxing meal and beverage at one of our nearby partner restaurants before or after their tour. For many, these “locals” hangouts are part of the Arizona Experience. In addition, many guests want to spend some time at the close-by Anthem Outlet Mall, the Pioneer Living History Museum, or charming Cave Creek, AZ. When we provide transportation, you are not be able to enjoy these things because you will arrive right before your tour and depart right after your tour. Secondly, there are many great transportation options in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Most resorts have car rentals available right at the resort for a very reasonable price. And, for those that don’t, rental car agencies are located all over the valley. In addition to this, there are numerous transportation companies that will provide round trip transportation on your schedule, not ours. And, quickly growing in popularity are taxi services such as Uber or Lyft. Scottsdale/Phoenix visitors quickly find that they have lots of great transportation options that allow them to maximize their vacation fun.What time do tours depart?

You can take a tour with us another time. And, please remember, once the tour goes out, there is no way to get back other than come back with the tour.Will there be other people in my vehicle?
We are a group guided adventure that takes a convoy of vehicles out into the desert. Most of our Tomcars are 4 seaters. Groups of 3 or 4 will have their own private car. Depending on the mix of guests that we have for your scheduled tour time, a group of 2 may or may not have another group of 2 in their car. That said, all guests will have plenty of time to drive if they choose and are sure to have a spectacular time. Are you a group of 2 that would like to reserve your own private car?
