Re: Suicide at the Gun Range

If wonder if that was a "range ninja" (range safety officer) behind him, they sure got a surprise!

I don't go to public shooting ranges anymore, between the range ninjas and idiots pointing their muzzle at you while they bend over to pick up spent brass, it is no fun and too dangerous.

Come to think of it, anytime the public is involved things suck, rock concerts, public schools etc. are best avoided.
Right there with you. Nervous to even send my kids to school anymore.

Re: Suicide at the Gun Range

Read it was because of depression but didnt know location. Thanks kellyhound
The location of the depression was his head after he shot himself.

Re: Suicide at the Gun Range

It's funny how some call him a selfish bastard because he did it in front of someone else, do you think the shooter gives a shit? He doesn't he's fucking dead, mission accomplished.

Re: Suicide at the Gun Range

Depression or not. It's a shitty thing to off yourself in front of/in a business of anybody. They just gotta take someone with them.
I believe he didn't have a gun so he had to go to a range, rent a pistol, buy some ammo and commit suicide.

Re: Suicide at the Gun Range

I have to admit that something like this is a very real concern when the club I am a member of hosts an open evening (there are 9 ranges, but the outdoor ones cannot be used after sundown +0.5h), and I'm tapped to be an RSO for the event.

Even though the non-members need to have someone within arms reach at all times, it still means that there are a bunch of people I don't know, who I have never seen use a firearm, and who I know nothing about them.

I've seen several videos like this, and there's almost no time to stop someone in this situation.

The two idiots who were posing with a handgun for selfies from a few months ago, and one of the idiots points his pistol at his friends head...that you have a chance to stop.

This?

Just not enough time.

Re: Suicide at the Gun Range

The same thing happened at a shooting range in my town about in Oct 2017. With a rented gun. So now the shooting range prohibits anyone from firing a rented firearm if they are alone.

One morning, I woke up and found my bf unresponsive. He had passed away about an hour before and I thought that was traumatic! I really feel for the employees and other customers who had to witness that. So sad.

My indoor range will rent to someone who comes in alone if they brought their own firearm with them. If they are a Kumbaya off the street that wants to rent a gun, no fucking way.
