I would hope no one is discouraged from shooting at Reds in the future because of this. But, I can understand the feeling. One just has to keep in mind that, as most of us know, your personal security in the end is left up to you. And being in a concrete room full of people with firearms of all different experience levels is less than an ideal atmosphere for safety. And occasionally, some have different objectives than practice or fun while being on the range. We do the best we can at Reds to make sure everyone is safe and can enjoy themselves. And I can safely say no one has ever even attempted to harm someone else at the shooting range. But so that everyone knows for their own peace of mind. Yes, it was a suicide, not an accident. No, no one else was harmed or threatened physically.

Yes very unfortunate indeed. I am unsure why the media has avoided the topic. There was plenty of press there towards the end and we at Reds did not try and stop them from filming or reporting. However, I was never able to find anything about it on the news. It was a suicide. The man rented a 357 revolver and shot a few shots on the range and right afterwards took the firearm to his own head. It's pretty clear he likely passed before he hit the ground and none of the projectile hit anyone else. He did in fact leave a note in his car explaining his intentions and why, although I never heard the reasons.

I wish his family the best of luck though.
