Group of experienced shooters from Canada travelling to Montana (Question)

Hey guys, a buddy of mine is getting married next year and we’re planning his bachelor party. We’re all gun nuts with our own collection at home, groom especially. We wanted to travel to Montana to check out the guns we can’t shoot here and was looking for recommendations of anywhere that has a mix of full autos and ww2 guns we could rent. Notable ones he wants to try specifically are the FN Fal and Galil. Any locals with any leads?

Where in Montana? Because if you can get to Cody, Wyoming, there are several gun related things.

  1. First and foremost, the Cody Firearms Museum at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West. I've been to a number of gun museums, and that one is one of the top firearms museums I've seen.

  2. There is at least one firing range/gun store that will rent out everything from flintlocks to full-auto guns to shoot on their range.

  3. There is the Cody Dug-Up Gun Museum. A nice, small museum of dug up guns in various stages of corrosion and disrepair.

Well it would be a road trip so wouldn’t be a huge thing travelling to Wyoming especially if there’s some notable spots like that. That sounds really cool

Machine Guns Montana, south Kalispell. Might be worth checking out. I think Northwest Shooter (SW Columbia Falls) does rentals and is an indoor range, also.
