Shot and Robbed At The Range

[PaxMentis]

He survived & will recover is all that matters to me. The weapons & buggy are replacable, he is Not! I dont think its Random, id be willing to wager a half a paycheck that atleast one of the actors was either related or knows this man personally? How else could you literally walk or drive up on an Armed citizen and successfully shoot & rob them?

I would be talking more to the cousin.

There was a related story link on the page that spoke of an encounter he had at the range a few days earlier with a couple of weaponless guys hanging out...

I dont think they should jailed, instead they should be strung up at the range, and used for target practise.

Rule #1....
Never go hunting, fishing, hiking, camping or to an outdoor shooting range all by yourself....
2 or more armed guys/gals hanging out 'together' is a hell of a lot safer & better odds than one lone person i.m.h.o. Don't let the theiving bastards bring you down and stay safe folks.

WOW, Glad the guy will recover, Prayers out to him and whoever takes down the doosh-bags that robbed him.

Mental note don't shoot all ammo. I have been to ranges that I shot everything. All my weapons is alot of value . Great place to releve me of them. It could of happen to any of us.
