I would be very much surprised to discover that tourists could just rock up at a shooting range and be allowed to fire away for a couple of hours. The Israeli authorities are ultra security conscious and I would expect that such ranges are only to Israeli citizens and are designed to enable them to keep their shooting skills up to scratch rather than this being seen as a suitable leisure activity for untrained tourists.
Israeli men, once called-up for national service are usually required to remain as reservists even after their time as full-time members of the Israeli Defence Force is ended. They keep their service rifle then for as long as they are reservists and I would assume that they are primarily the 'public' that shooting ranges are open to, not non-Israeli citizens visiting on holiday.

                I do clay shooting, and most clubs here in England have days when people can turn up to what are called  (Have a Go Days) this lets you have a go with proper instruction and use of a shotgun. Or you can go to most shooting grounds and pay for a lesson again under supervision, they learn you how to handle a gun safely and it includes Clay and Cartridges.
As for going to Israel to shoot as SMa says you may find it hard to do there, it would be a bit like going to Northern Ireland a few years ago and trying to do it.
