Oh no.......

Post by fortyshooter » Tue Feb 02, 2021 3:37 pm

Just heard about a shooting/suicide at the gun shop/range in town that I use as my FFL pickup. :( Same thing happened couple years ago and another shop/range 30 miles away has had several of these incidents in the last year.
I have a gun coming soon at the local one I mentioned and hope he will be open. More news to follow.

Soon there will no renting of guns at ranges!

That's not good for any number of reasons. Hope it doesn't shut your LGS down. But, if someone really wants to commit suicide, you can't prevent it.
I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

A friend of mine took his life a year ago August. We are still not sure what pushed him to this. He left a very simple note that said "I've had enough - I'm out of here." He used a shotgun on himself.

Latest report I heard this evening was a 27 year old male that shot himself in the range area. Sad deal.
