Shane Warne’s son, Jackson Warne, is getting into the American spirit on his Las Vegas holiday.
The 25-year-old picked up an assault rifle on Wednesday after competing in the World Poker Championships in Sin City.
Jackson, who bears an uncanny resemblance to his late father, shared a carousel of photos from his week in the U.S. with his beautiful girlfriend, Kiah Broadsmith.
The cricketing scion flashed a wide smile as he posed for a selfie with his girlfriend at the five-star Wynn Las Vegas hotel, where the third annual WPT World Championship events started this week.
In the second photo from his trip highlight reel, Jackson flashed his pearly whites as he posed with an M4 assault rifle.
He paid a visit to the largest indoor shooting range in Las Vegas, located just a few minutes off the Strip, and in another picture showed off his target littered with bullets.

The shooting range offers a wide selection of firearms, including AK-47s, MP5s commonly used by elite special forces, US military standard-issue automatic rifles M4/M16s, and belt-fed squad automatic weapons M249 SAW guns, made famous in video games like Call of Duty and films such as Black Hawk Down.

The poker player and his partner then stepped away from the tables last night to play tourist in Las Vegas.
The lovebirds posed for postcard snaps outside the Gordon Ramsey Hell's Kitchen restaurant at Ceaser's Palace, Little Venice, and did a spot of window shopping for Italian sports cars.
In another shot, Jackson photographed a Pagani parked in a neon-lit showroom.
The cheapest models of the coveted hypercars cost USD$1.4million and the most expensive run up to USD$17.6million.
They then capped off their lively evening by taking in a UFC fight.
Jackson cut a casual figure for his big day on the tables, wearing a plain black T-shirt underneath a grey puffer jacket.
He complemented his ensemble with a pair of plain black chinos, tall white socks and a pair of brown slides.

He finished his look with a white baseball-style cap that featured a black heart in a little nod to his favourite game.
The WPT Championship kicked off this week on December. 3 with a US$1million guarantee No-Limit Hold ‘em tournament and an $800 entry fee.
The festival runs through Dec. 23 and features numerous promotions and more than $100,000 million in prize pools from events played across many variants of poker with the most popular No-Limit Hold ‘em.
Jackson is the only son of one of Australia’s greatest cricket players of all time, Shane Warne.
After his dad’s untimely death in 2022, Jackson and his two siblings, Brooke and Summer, inherited 31 per cent of Warne’s 20.7 million fortune.
At first glance Jackson’s life looks pretty enviable. He shares photos of his globe-trotting adventures from London to Mykonos and beyond with his girlfriend.
But he has also been candid about his grief and how he has had to actively choose not to let it overcome him.
In a frank Instagram post, Jackson shared that he could have let himself go 'downhill' after his dad’s tragic death, but instead he’d used it as motivation.
'I used this trauma as energy for life. I surrounded myself with good people, went to the gum every day, drank water, swam, laughed a lot and was consistent,' he shared.
Jackson added that he is 'the happiest and healthiest' that he's ever been and pointed out that it costs 'zero' to move your body every day and laugh.
The legendary leg spinner died on March 4 at the age of 52 while on holiday with friends on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand.
An autopsy concluded he died from 'natural causes'.
