Thanks for the suggestions on bookstores in Vegas. I went
last weekend and picked up a copy of Cornell Woolrich's
Savage Bride (Gold Medal) at Albion. They had a sizeable
collectible mystery section.
We did a lot of interesting things and one of them was a trip
to The Gun Store (2900 E Tropicana Ave). I had heard they had
a big selection of machine guns to rent and I was reading a
book on the AK-47 and so I thought I should fire off a few
rounds. I also wanted to shoot one of those old Thompsons
that are always featured in gangster movies in the 30s. I was
amazed at how easy to handle the AK was.
Had one of those only-in-Vegas moments when a whole bridal
party came in to shoot an Uzi dressed in their gowns. They
were all gorgeous and seemed to handle the weapon like they
had some experience with it. Now that I think about they
certainly looked like they could have been Israeli.
