Anyone know what type of bullet trap they used there? I've seen a lot of places using rubber chips which are ground tires. When that stuff catches fire it is a beast to put out.

A devastating fire has left RISE and a few other businesses temporarily closed.
We apologize for any inconvenience, especially to those of you who signed up for our classes or made any appointments. We are still handling the situation and trying to recover. This interruption is only temporary and we’ll be back up and running in no time.
We will do our best to keep everyone updated on our schedule!

"Gun Shooting Range" is redundant and sounds like something a 5 year old would say. "Range" is all that needs be said.

Never shot there. Was there once. I scored a numbers matching Nagoya Type 99 Long rifle. Only about 8200 made. Hopefully they put in an elevator. Those stairs were a bitch on crutches

Someone shooting tracers maybe?

Very unfortunate for all involved. Hopefully the reporting doesn't cast it as a black eye for the shooting community.

I work there. Shit is devastating, we were there early morning today thinking the fire was out, and hoping to get some stuff out. Unfortunately the fire went up again late last night. Firefighters cant get to the fire thats burning in between our ceiling and the floor of the stores above. :(

Did a round go into the ceiling by chance and hit a wire?
