New gun shop for Las Vegas strip?


General Growth Properties, which manages The Shoppes at The Palazzo is requesting a firearm sales permit and a permit for a shooting range. They are looking for two indoor shooting ranges, but do not plan to sell ammunition. (Seems like it will be a very controlled environment where customers get to shoot loaded magazines like The Gun Store)

Clark County Planning Commission is to review the proposal next week.

There are several gunshops and ranges in Las Vegas, but this place, if it happens, will be the first on the Vegas Strip.
