Operation and opening hours
The Celeritas basement range welcomes guests all year round, 5 days a week: on Tuesdays and Thursdays groups start between 11:00 and 15:00, on Fridays, Saturdays and Mondays from 10:00 to 16:00. The range can be visited at a pre-arranged time; pre-set or custom experience packages can be booked.
The “Basic” package can be shot without booking by adults (over 18) on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 12:00 to 15:00. This applies to the “Basic” package only and not on Saturdays. Booked places are guaranteed; walk-ins can shoot only subject to free places and may be turned away if there is no room.
The range is closed on Wednesdays, Sundays and public holidays. We reserve the right, for practical reasons and without separate notice, to have individuals and smaller groups shoot together at the same time. We also reserve the right to replace any gun or ammunition in a package with another gun or ammunition for safety or operational reasons.
Custom package
You can build your own package from any guns in our armoury. It must contain at least 5 items and costs the base price plus the price of the guns, so at least 41 000 Ft HUF per person. The 16 000 Ft HUF per person deposit is paid at booking by choosing the “Custom” package, then the guns are selected with the “Add a gun” button. To avoid misunderstandings, the gun list is chosen separately for each person. The option is available without limit on weekdays; on Saturdays we have capacity for at most 15 handguns and 15 rifles per person.
Booking
By confirming a booking you accept these participation terms. The person making the booking is responsible for making sure every member of the group knows the terms. To book we need the number of participants, the requested time and the package name. A booking is made when we confirm it in writing (e-mail).
Deposit and payment
When sending a booking, a deposit per person that depends on the chosen package is paid online by bank card; the deposit of each package is shown in the table below. No booking is made without the deposit.
The remaining amount is paid on arrival at the range, as stated in the booking confirmation. In cash we accept forint or euro only. Card payment is possible with VISA and Mastercard. We cannot accept AMEX or SZÉP cards.
| Basic | 4 000 Ft / person |
| Police Special, Red Army, Gamer, Wild West, Silent Night | 5 000 Ft / person |
| Greatest Hits, Black Ops | 8 000 Ft / person |
| PUBG, The Great War, World War II, Shoot ’Em All | 13 000 Ft / person |

| On site, the remaining amount: Cash (HUF, EUR), Visa, Mastercard – no AMEX or SZÉP card | |
Prices
The prices shown on our website are valid, include VAT and are not negotiable, regardless of the number of participants. You are informed again of the price of the chosen package during booking. The package price is the amount stated in the booking confirmation, which is guaranteed and will not change.
Age limit
The experience packages are available to participants over the age of 18.
Pregnant women cannot take part in the shooting – not even as spectators. From around week 24 the foetus can hear outside sounds, and a gunshot is very loud.
Individual requests
Any gun from our armoury can be added to a package as an extra. We appreciate being told in advance during booking, via the “Add a gun” button. Extra guns can also be added on arrival at the range. The service may occasionally be unavailable or limited for technical reasons.
Changing and cancelling a booking
A booking can be changed once up to 72 hours before the event. The change takes effect when we confirm it in writing (e-mail). The number of participants can be increased or decreased up to that deadline. A change without written confirmation may lead to cancellation of the booking.
A booking can be cancelled up to 72 hours before the event, in which case the deposit is refunded in full. If the booking is cancelled within 72 hours, we reserve the right to keep the deposit as a cancellation fee. A cancellation takes effect when we confirm it in writing (e-mail).
Late arrival
Please arrive at the range 15 minutes before your start time so there is time for the paperwork and payment. If you are more than 15 minutes late, we treat the booking as cancelled.
Legal statement
Everyone taking part as a shooter must sign the “Register” on arrival. This is a legal requirement and contains the safety rules to be followed during shooting and the necessary legal statements.
Frequently asked questions
Booking and payment
Can I drop in to shoot a few guns?
No, we only sell complete packages. You can book any of them through our online booking system by paying the deposit, or you can come without booking and deposit on weekdays (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday) between 12:00 and 15:00, every hour, for the “Basic” package.
I have no bank card. Can I pay the full amount on site?
Unfortunately not. We do not accept a booking without the deposit paid online. You can still come without booking and deposit on weekdays (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday) between 12:00 and 15:00, every hour, for the “Basic” package.
I have not received a confirmation. What should I do?
Right after paying the deposit you get an automatic e-mail, followed by a confirmation within a few hours. If you can't even see the automatic e-mail, you probably mistyped your address. If there is no confirmation within 24 hours, check your spam folder first. If it is not there either, write to booking@celeritas-sch.com.
Can I share a package with someone?
No, a package cannot be shared. One package is for one person.
Can I share an extra gun?
The same applies to extra guns as to the package itself: added once, only one person can shoot it.
Packages and guns
Can I add extra guns to a package?
Yes, any gun in our armoury can be tried. The number of shots depends on the calibre of the gun you choose. Just click “Add a gun” during booking, pick from the list and add it to your package.
Can I change or swap the guns in a package, or shoot a custom package?
No, the guns cannot be swapped, as others shooting the same package at the same time might not find it fair. Extra guns can be added with the “Add a gun” button. A custom package is also possible; you find the details on the Participation terms page.
Can I shoot fully automatic guns?
All live-fire assault rifles in the packages (AK47, M16 and other big, black, evil rifles) and submachine guns (UZI, MP5 and other small, black, naughty guns) are semi-automatic versions: one trigger pull = one bang. By law, fully automatic firearms are allowed only for law enforcement and the military.
We are a group of X people. Can we shoot different packages at the same time?
At most four different packages can be shot in one time slot. If you are coming with a partner who is a little wary of firearms, we strongly recommend a simpler package (“Basic” or “Police Special”) for them.
I am coming alone. Can I join a group?
Most likely you will shoot together with others, as for practical reasons we merge smaller groups into a larger one of up to 12 people.
Location and getting here
How far is the range from the city centre and how long does it take to get there?
We are 15 km from the city centre, in the south of Budapest, usually a 20–30 minute drive. By public transport it can take 1–1.5 hours depending on tram, bus and metro timetables and where you start from.
What is the easiest way to get there by public transport?
To plan the best route we recommend Google Maps (also linked from our Contact page) or the BKK journey planner.
How much is a taxi?
Depending on distance and traffic, usually around 6,000 HUF. More information on the City Taxi website.
Taking part
Can spectators come with me?
Space is limited, so no more than 20 people can be in the shooting lane at once. We can admit at most 3 spectators per shooter or group. Please note the expected number of spectators in the “Note” field when booking. Spectators take part free of charge and we provide eye and ear protection for them too. Pregnant women may not take part, not even as spectators.
Can I take photos and videos?
Of course. You can take photos and videos during the shooting and afterwards with the empty guns.
Can I take the cartridge cases home as a souvenir?
A few cases can be taken as a souvenir, as possession of fired cases is allowed in Hungary. They must not be taken on an aircraft, though, not even in checked luggage. If you fly, your bag will be screened and they will probably be found, which leads to legal trouble.
What language is the event in?
Most of our guests are from abroad, so we speak English. Of course we all speak Hungarian too.
What should I wear?
Although the range is indoors, in a basement, the ventilation blows in fresh outdoor air, so the temperature is about the same as outside, minus the snow, rain and blazing sun. Dress sporty and comfortable. Guns are oily and get sooty in use, so a white shirt or a cocktail dress is not the best idea. Flip-flops and high heels are not recommended either.
Can a pregnant woman take part?
The answer is a big red NO with three exclamation marks. From around week 24 the foetus can hear outside sounds, and a gunshot is very loud. Unless you want your child born with hearing damage, stay away from the range.
