Perhaps "shoot up a saloon" might have been a better example. It
means you go into a structure with guns blazing so that it and its
contents are riddled with bullets. I looked it up in my dictionary
which gave a couple of options, but when I looked them back up on the
Swedish side, none of them really translated back as "shoot up". So,
"beskjuta"?, "beskjuta en korg"?, "beskjuta en ladugård"?
