Budapest: 40 Shots, 6 Guns at Capital Shooting Range — Prices & Booking
Experience Overview
Capital Shooting Range is a brand-new indoor facility in downtown Budapest, located at the corner of Dob and Vörösmarty streets. With a 4.9-star rating from 34 reviews, it has quickly established itself as a serious alternative to the longer-running range on Holló utca.
What sets this package apart is the calibre diversity. For ~38,200 HUF (~€91 / ~$99), you fire 6 different firearms across 5 distinct calibres — from the gentle .22 LR Ruger through 9mm pistols and SMG, a hard-hitting .45 ACP handgun, and up to the M4 Carbine (.223 Rem) and the legendary AK47 (7.62×39mm). That’s a wider range of calibres than most Budapest packages offer at any price.
The experience runs for approximately 1.5 hours — longer than the 1-hour sessions at other venues — and includes complimentary coffee and water, detailed safety instruction, and paper targets to take home as souvenirs.
Firearms & Shots
Six firearms covering the full spectrum from pistol to assault rifle:
| Firearm | Type | Calibre | Shots |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ruger MK IV | Semi-Auto Pistol | .22 LR | 10 |
| FÉG P9 “Browning” | Semi-Auto Pistol | 9×19 mm | 5 |
| Grand Power P45 | Semi-Auto Pistol | .45 ACP | 5 |
| Stribog SP9A1 | Submachine Gun | 9×19 mm | 10 |
| M4 Carbine | Carbine / Rifle | .223 Remington | 5 |
| Kalashnikov AK47 | Assault Rifle | 7.62×39 mm | 5 |
The standout feature is the .45 ACP Grand Power P45 — a powerful handgun calibre you won’t find in most Budapest tourist packages. Combined with the AK47 and M4 Carbine, this gives you a genuine feel for the range of recoil and power across different firearm types.
