  • Flat-lay overhead shot on dark green felt of a custom 1911 pistol, an AR-15 carbine and a Beretta over-under shotgun arranged in parallel with stacks of brass ammunition between them, single warm spotlight.
  • A man’s hands in tactical gloves loading rounds into a Glock magazine on a wooden range bench, AR-15 and ear protection visible in soft focus, warm range lighting, no faces.
  • A paper silhouette target at the end of a private indoor shooting range lane, illuminated by the lane spotlight with bullet holes clustered in the centre mass, dark range walls receding, brass casings on the floor.
  • Ex-military instructor in dark polo and tan tactical pants demonstrating a two-handed pistol grip from behind to a student at an indoor shooting range, both shown back-to-camera, no faces visible.
  • A weathered teak whisky bar inside a private gun-club lounge — two crystal glasses of single malt poured, a humidor and a leather Chesterfield sofa in soft focus background, warm amber lighting.

The Lara difference

Why this is rarely done well.

Thailand’s licensing rules make walk-up live-fire a non-starter for foreign visitors. The two ranges that can host a foreign guest privately do not advertise — bookings move through a small circle of introducers, and the ex-SF instructor cadre is even tighter.

Lara holds direct relationships with both private ranges and the senior instructor cadre. She names the specific bay, the instructor by service background, the firearm progression and the ammo count in one quote — and the licences are filed before you arrive.

The shooter who has range time already and wants a coach who actually carried. The CEO bringing four guys for a high-impact afternoon. The first-time shooter under one-to-one supervision — the curriculum starts with safety drills, not a loaded magazine.

How it works

One message. Then arrive.

  1. Step 01

  2. Step 02

    Lara confirms the day

    Specific range, named instructor, firearm progression, ammo count and pickup. Total cost locked before you commit.

  3. Step 03

    You arrive

    Pickup from your hotel, safety brief, four hours on the range, lounge debrief with whisky and targets, chauffeur back.

Common questions

The quiet answers.

  • What does a private tactical day cost?

    All-in for the range, instructor, full firearm progression, ammunition, licences and lounge after: USD 4,200–6,800 for one to four guests; USD 9,500–14,000 for groups of six to ten. Insurance and chauffeur transfer included.

  • Do we need any prior experience?

    No. The curriculum starts with thirty minutes of safety drills before a single round is loaded. The instructor only progresses to the AR-15 once the pistol grouping is consistent — Lara only books guests where the instructor signs off on each stage.

  • Are the firearms real and live-fire?

    Yes — every firearm is fully licensed and live-fire, with serial-numbered range issue and certified ammunition. Lara does not arrange airsoft, paintball or rubber-bullet sessions.

  • Can wives or partners come?

    Yes — the lounge is air-conditioned, has glass viewing into the range bays and a separate whisky-and-cigar offering. Many guests find the spectator role more enjoyable than they expected.
