Fire engulfs Tarrant county gun range (http://www.wfaa.com/story/news/local/tarrant-county/2016/01/23/reports-fire-tarrant-county-gun-range/79230448/)

Been shooting there for at least 20 years, got my CHL there 15 years ago. Bought several firearms there also, before they were lost in a tragic boating accident.

News so far is an electrical short in the ammunition storage room. Only one injured, firefighter fell down a ladder.

Saw some video of the fire earlier today. Going to be different driving through Whiskey Flats and not seeing On Target there. :sadangel:

Wife drove by just after noon today and was caught in the traffic heading north. It's a sad sight. Got a Sig 226 Legion in .40 on order there, so I guess we'll find out a bit more later after I talk to Jack.

Saw that on the local news. Not to make your day worse but did you know Clarks in Tioago burned down this week, too!

You could hear the rounds going off in the live video.

Damn :sadangel: Really awful when a business that is part of a town's history, burns down.

Hopefully it's feasible to rebuild and improve upon the old facility. :cert:

We were seeing the smoke from our place, such a loss. :sadangel:

[Thunder22]

does it burn down frequently or just the one time? :)

(grammar nazi off)

I suppose it would depend on the tense. Sorta a shortened version of:

My favorite gun range burns down, as I post here on the The Vette Barn.

If I posted the event after it had occurred, the statement might have been:

My favorite gun range burned down, yesterday.


You some sort of an English teacher, or what? :jester:

You could hear the rounds going off in the live video.

Melissa said she could hear rounds popping off from 377 as she drove by. :willy:
