They still have not released the name. I know quite a few people that shoot there.  I hope it was not someone I know. I have a feeling this was not a suicide. All too often I have seen people pointing guns every where except down range.

Another thing that pisses me off is when someone calls a cease fire and they don't check to make sure everyone heard them (there is no PA so you have to just shout and hope everyone can hear you) and they just proceed down range while people are still shooting.  no

Once when I was taking my CHL renewal (same range, different area) they tell you no loaded mags past the last firing line. Well this one young guy starts walking up and the RO tells him to unload his mags. Now there are people down range setting up their targets and all of a sudden we hear bang, bang, bang, and everyone is hitting the dirt. The dumb ass though that 'unload your mags' meant to just start shooting to unload them.  face in palm Needless to say, they booted him out.

Anyway, details are still sketchy. Single shot to the head. Not sure if it was a suicide,  accident or foul play.

They do have video surveillance, so they will know one way or another.

BEXAR COUNTY -- A 29-year-old is dead after suffering a single gunshot wound to the head at the Bullet Hole Shooting Range, 2715 Grosenbacher Road.

Bexar County deputies confirmed the man died following the shooting after 2 p.m. Tuesday.

It has been confirmed that victim was on the shooting range, firing a handgun when he suffered a single gunshot wound to the head. He died at the scene.

Deputies identified the victim as a 29-year-old San Antonio man. His name was not immediately released pending notification of next of kin.

Early investigation indicates it may not have been an accident.

After bystanders at the range noticed the victim had fallen to the ground, they were directed to put their weapons down and leave the range so that detectives could begin their investigation.

Those present during the shooting were wearing headphones and protective goggles, making it very difficult for them to hear or see things around them.

Fortunately, surveillance video may help investigators put the pieces together. Detectives are reviewing the footage now to determine if the gunshot was self-inflicted or if foul play was involved.

I hope the reporter meant to say "ear muffs" or "ear protection" since headphones are used to listen to music and not to protect the ears from damaging sound levels. frying pan  Frozen Frozen in Snow Tongue Out

Yes, they meant hearing protection. And the 'goggles' better not be imparing your view. At least none of the ones I've ever used do. However, it is a range, so one would expect to be hearing gunshots and nobody is going to be looking every time they hear a shot.

I find it interesting that they still have not determined what happened. They recently renovated the handgun area because they built a school not too far away (same direction that you shoot). This is an outdoor range and so they installed some covering to prevent rounds from going over the berm. But they are using some metal I beams as supports. On some of the gun forums I frequent, I have heard of some freak ricochets happening (rounds coming directly back at the shooter). So I suppose it's possible that a round from the guy's gun or someone else's hit one of those beams and came back.

They did release a name and it was not anyone I know.

It was ruled a suicide.  Unless someone rents a gun, I dont see why they would need to do it at the range.  no

The death of a 29-year-old man found shot in the head at a shooting range has been ruled a suicide, authorities said on Wednesday.

After reviewing surveillance footage, investigators said Jared King, of San Antonio, shot himself with a semi automatic handgun at the Bullet Hole Shooting Range, 2715 Grosenbacher Road.

The Bexar County Medical Examiner said King died at the shooting range just after 2 p.m. Tuesday.

Investigators said King held the gun in his left hand although he was right handed so that nobody would be able to see the gun from where he was positioned. Other shooters at the range were directed to put down their weapons after King was discovered shot.

The shooting range reopened for business Wednesday

I recently acquired one of these. This is a Pietta replica 1861 Remington Army Police, 36 caliber. It's a lot of fun to shoot, though it takes five minutes to load it, so you better finish what you start in six shots. Interestingly, under Federal law it isn't considered to be a firearm.

This is what happens when reporters that don't have a clue about the subject they're reporting about, go ahead and report anyway. Duh!  Lot's of bad information there. ttth

You can still hear gunshots and even people talking while wearing ear protection, and you can see just fine when wearing eye protection. There's not much point trying to shoot a target if you can't see it, right?  loser loser loser bust gut laughing bust gut laughing

Yeah, I currently have 6 of them (down from about 10). A few are special editions, but my favorite is this one that I lucked onto a couple of years ago. It's just a standard 92FS, but they only made 50 of them. It's a 'Texas Special' made for the opening of the Dallas Beretta Gallery in 97.
