Damn. That sucks. Definitely the first time I recall it happening locally.

Good folks at GG, they sure didn't need something like this to deal with.

looks like the fellow needs more practice, if he botched that.

Do they rent guns to people who come alone without a firearm of their own?

Yes they do. I've went in to rent a few things to try before I purchased.

There was a guy on TV years ago that failed twice using a shotgun. He literally blew his face off twice and spoke about it.

Third time's a charm.

When those things happen I feel bad for the customers and the employees there.

GG is a nice place. Shame about this.

Never understood why someone would choose to kill themselves in a gun range. 

Buy a gun, shoot yourself somewhere nice, like the beach at sunset. 

These gun range suicides aren't all that uncommon.

Beware the man that asks for only one round...unless it's a scandium framed 357. Those kinda hurt.

I think people sometimes hesitate/jerk at the very last instant of pulling the trigger and end up angling the gun which can then have a trajectory that misses the CNS.

if i had to shoot an ultralight .357 i would just rely on the sound of cocking the hammer to scare the bad guy off (ala pump action shotgun). fuck that.

I was at a gun store/ indoor range once when a guy came in off the street to rent a revolver and buy six rounds of ammunition.

Of course he was told to GTFO; we all thought he was there to try to rob the place.
