Fire at Heartland Outdoors

I got an email saying the range was temp closed for "cleaning" the email said nothing about a fire.
 
Just got this...



We just found out the range clean up is going to be more extensive and intrusive then expected, and as a result we have to close the whole store today. We will resume regular business hours tomorrow. Again, we are extremely sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Thanks for your understanding,
Heartland Outdoors
 
I've been asked if this Sundays match is still on.

YES!

The match is still on!

They had a small fire because some doofus was shooting tracer ammo. They have video, so I have no doubt they will determine who the doofus was.

They will reopen no later than Friday, if not tomorrow.

The match IS STILL ON!

Great stages and challenges planned, so hope to see you there!

Wow ... I wonder if that guy realized how stupid he was after he did it or if he's going to just continue on his life not knowing?
 
Another update....



The store will now be closed until Friday, November 16th at 10 am. The closure is from a customer shooting prohibited tracer ammunition on the gun range which sparked a fire on Tuesday evening. In order to assure a full and proper clean up we have decided to not open until Friday. We are very sorry for the inconvenience.
 
I was there Tuesday evening practicing in the East bay when the fire started, I think the guy in the next lane and i were the only ones not shooting rifles that evening. Anyway we started to notice the smell of burning rubber then the range guy comes in and says we need to evacuate due to a fire in the West bay. While we were in the waiting area the guys try a standard fire extinguisher to no avail and looking at the security monitor we could see a very small fire that grew pretty slowly on one of the East lanes of the West bay. Then the excitment starts with four fire trucks, two police cars, then evacuatation of the whole store. For such a tiny fire in a concrete tomb it made a ton of smoke.

I guess they are going to have to start inspecting ammo now to keep the dumb**s out

Since they take your ID when you go in there, I'm assuming they have some record of the jackass that did it and will be sending them the bill?
