Many years ago (1972) I worked at an indoor range. Two young men came in and one rented a .38 and bought a bag of reloads. His friend sat down in the visitors area and we suppose nodded off to sleep. About 35 rounds later the range officer was shocked to see a young man flying backwards out of his partitioned area. The fellow had turned the gun on himself and put a wad cutter in his heart.
Later the police talked to the friend who said. Yeah he had talked about shooting himself since his girlfriend had broken up with him.
Exactly, most ranges will not allow you to rent if your are at the range by yourself... That doesn't make a bit of sense.
Does that mean that they won't allow you to bring your own gun if you're by yourself?
