Dragonman's Range Accidents (2): Merge of previous threads on this subject

VERY BAD NEWS!!!!!

First off, I can't understand why we've not heard or seen anything on this in ANY of the media...

For those of you who came out to assist me with this event, you surely remember Lacy who was shooting at the opposite end of the shooting line from where you guys were set up (was down there with the guy who had the AK47 with the bump-fire stock). I've known Lacy & her husband for 13 years. This is her:




She's an all around beautiful (physically, spiritally, personality, etc.) woman with an amazing zest for life and an electric personality that you can't help but be in a good mood when around her.

I don't know any details as to exactly what happened or how bad of shape she is in, but yesterday she was "badly burned in an accident at the range". According to info I read on her Facebook page, she suffered Second Degree burns. Again, I don't know where the burns were received or how much of her body was burned. She is currently in a burn unit somewherew in the Denver area and (again, according to a post on her Facebook page) the doctors want her there at least 2 weeks. I'm told that she is an emotional wreck right now.

Mike, the guy with the bump-fire, was burned too but I know no details about his state except he supposedly isn't as bad as Lacy.

I don't know what range she was using when this occured but she usually at Dragonman's. My guess is that they had Dragonman's flamethrower out and something went very wrong.

Lacy is MAJORLY into shooting and has been working hard to enhance her skills as well as her firearms collection. While not YET a member of this site, she's one of us!

Lacy's husband is former 10th Special Forces and is currently in Uganda (I think it was Uganda) attempting to get some contracts with the government over there. He's supposed to come back to the US/CO on Sunday.


So, for those of you who are inclined to do so, please keep Lacy in your thoughts and prayers - both for her physical as well as her emotional/spiritual recovery.

Damn, that place is cool tho

so much for going out there now.

I think that can't be good for the insurance rates. Good thing they have that waiver when you first show up.

What's going on is there re too many idiots out there. The RO's do a great job but can only see so much. I used to go out there a ton when I had the money and guns... But now there are too many idiots out there. I don't know what happened but I can guess it went something like, "Dude, they're filming over there!.... Watch this!"

The incident reportedly occurred at approximately 1930 and they close the range at 1700.

Does anybody get the feeling that this might involve gun smoke?

I have the distinct feeling that I won't be going there anymore.
