This is funny. My wife & I just went to Waikiki last January and noticed the fliers. It was a rainy day, so we wandered through the mall looking for it (didn't take much effort). Our thought was that a little indoor paper-punching was a good way to spend a rainy day & figured we'd just rent some range guns for a bit.
Wrong.
The salesguy at the front desk seemed nice enough but apparently took his job *very* seriously. He explained in quite sober tones how we'd have to buy a "package". Basically, an "instructor" stands over your shoulder, recites Basic Safety 101, and essentially does everything except pull the trigger. The cheapest one they offered was something like $30 for 10 rounds of frigging .22.
Trying to be equally non-jerkish but definitely being amused, I named the makes & models of the guns on display (I think it was something like a S&W 686, a Ruger P94, a 10/22 and a Buckmark or 22/45), and explained that I either currently own or have owned each of them at one point or another, thanks much, and that we normally drive into national forest land for a few hours of shooting whenever we feel like.
I then offered to let him look me up if he ever visited Colorado and I'd let him shoot a lot more (and better) than what he had and I'd only charge him for ammo. [:D]
Darealikt, you got it right. We noticed that the street hawkers passing these out pretty much totally ignored the haoles and almost always zeroed in on the Japanese tourists. I made it a point to walk slowly right past them & they still didn't even *try* to hand one to me.
