    It happened gallions and they didn't have a range or rentals.

    GREENFIELD — A man fatally shot himself Wednesday morning in the indoor shooting range at Highsmith Guns in Greenfield, police said. Police were called to the gun range, 123 N. State St., just before 11 a.m. The Daily Reporter is on the scene and will update the story as more details become available.

    I think he was saying it happened there as well in the past.

    Had plans to use my groupon coupon there today but they fell through.
    Can't imagine the staff/customers that had to see it/deal with it.
    Sad for the family of the one looking for an "easy" way out as well.

    There goes gun rentals.

    Same thing happened at Applied Ballistics in Lafayette just last year I believe.
    Woman rented a gun and shot herself in the head in the range.

    Thankfully, due to a determined business owner, and a consistent and loyal customer base, their rental case has an even better selection than a year ago.

    I should take this opportunity to give a +1 for how Applied Ballistics handled the whole ordeal.
    They did a professional job before the event, and every day since.

    Hope everyone that had to witness this tragedy is o.k. and I hope the shop doesn't suffer as a result.

    Happened in Pop's Guns a few years back. I actually worked with the guy at the time. It was very somber around the office for a while.

    I don't agree with suicide, but shame on the people here casting judgement on a stranger and calling them names. In today's world that could very well be one of your kids or family one day...
