If you are looking to take out a few frustrations, the Dinamo shooting range could be the place.
But now its open season. The Dinamo range, one of the best in the city, has opened its doors to the public and is available for those wanting to hone their hunting skills -- though the targets are strictly inanimate.
There are six shooting galleries: two 50-meter (54.7 yard) galleries, two of 25-meters (27.35 yards), one of 10 meters (11 yards) and one with moving targets.
Qualified instructors and a selection of pistols and rifles are available.
On offer in the 50-meter gallery are rifles: the 5.6mm Ural-5 and Ural-6 and a sporting model, the CM-2.
Handguns feature in the 25-meter gallery, mainly 5.6mm pistols. Available are the Margolin, IZH-35, IZH-34, HR-30 and HR-31. Also held are examples of the 7.62mm TOZ-36 revolver.
For those content with a little less punch, there are shorter-range pneumatic weapons in the 10-meter gallery. There are 4.5mm rifle and pistols from German manufacturers Feuerwerkbau and Walther.
Conveniences such as earphones are available if requested.
To liven things up for more advanced marksmen, some targets twist, or appear only fleetingly, for periods of between 3-20 seconds.
Galleries are equipped with telescopes to take a good look at damage inflicted on targets. In the 25-meter halls targets can be reeled in on ropes and be replaced at any time.
But in the other galleries its a case of walking to the target and replacing it, after everyone has obeyed the "Put guns down" command.
Weapons for use in the gallery featuring moving targets are fitted with optical sights. Targets in that range are known in Russian as "wild boars," though in fact they are paper circles. They move at two speeds, appearing for either 2.5 or 5 seconds.
A huge camouflage net draped in the background is an attempt to lend this gallery the air of a native setting, which contrasts markedly with the computer monitor next to shooters display results.
The Dinamo range's chief coach, Leonid Petrov, who is an Honoured Coach of the Soviet Union (still the highest rank of a coach in Russia) said: "We are glad that we are now allowed to provide commercial shooting as well as sports shooting."
"We now have several security organizations and the entire city police training here." They provided good examples of marksmanship for other shooters, he said.
The Dinamo shooting range has produced more than 20 Honored Masters of Sports of the USSR (the highest sporting rank in the country).
Speaking of his own sports achievements, Mr Petrov modestly told that he used to regularly score 300 points -- out of possible 300.
Mr Petrov said the range is about 60 years old. It was constructed by order of Sergei Kirov, then the communist boss of Leningrad, who used to train at the range.
