Police: Man firing at 2nd man at gun range killed by 3rd man
ERIE, Pa. (AP) – A man firing shots at a gun range in northwest Pennsylvania began firing at another man and was then shot to death by a third man, state police said.
Troopers in Erie County were called shortly after 2 p.m. Tuesday to the State Gamelands gun range in Greene Township, police said.
Investigators said their initial investigation indicates that Robert Eppley, 26, of North East, was shooting downrange but then turned and started firing at a 28-year-old Erie man.
Police said a 67-year-old Erie man allegedly saw what was happening and shot Eppley multiple times. Eppley died at the scene and the 28-year-old victim was being treated for multiple gunshot wounds at an Erie hospital, police said. A condition report wasn’t immediately available.
Police said the older man was in custody. His name and the name of the wounded man weren’t released. No charges were immediately announced.

In custody? For what—saving a man’s life?
Well, at least no charges.
Guilty of living in PA and having a gun.
Ruger is losing it’s way with the latest spacegun.
I want to see a .45 acp carbine. Vertical mag or
Sten like horizontal. It is high time for a simple carbine with real knockdown power in the first round.
The old Camp Carbine was nice but it needs an upgrade.
Newest spaceguns and a surprise.

I’m still waiting for my firstborn.
Credit Card was charged. Documents e-mailed.
I know it’s the holidays so processing is probably delayed. I’m being patient.
S&W M&P 15-22. Oh and if I’ve learned anything from you guys, it’s …..
KEEP F5ing that fucking key at ammoseek.com like every 15 minutes just in case!!!!!! FUCK THE WoT!! THAT WON’T BRING AMMO TO THE FRONT DOOR!!!!
Or something like that. I don’t even have a new weapon in hand yet (I can still take rounds to the range and use the rental 15-22, it’s TONS cheaper than $0.30 (cents) a round they sell there for….
I’m like a Dad with a newborn at Target (I won’t buy at Walmart) buying onesies….
You won’t believe how much ammo I’ve got in the door and on the way.
I thought this may be good watching. I’ll send to Ed for consideration on the main…
A Message From Federal, CCI, Speer And Remington President Jason Vanderbrink On Ammo Demand

Lesson: there are 7000 grains of powder in a pound of powder. A 5.56 round uses roughly 30 or so grains of powder, so one pound of powder is worth about 230 rounds of ammo, 11 x 20 round boxes and change PER BOTTLE. A bag of 1000 5.56 bullets takes up about the room of a quart freezer bag. Primers at their largest take up a block of space 6″ long by maybe 3 1/2″ square. You can buy enough reloading equipment for $150 to turn out good quality rounds until you get tired of making them…. you are talking an investment of less than a single new gun to equip yourself to be ammo-independent for life.
If you bought large during the Obama years and still
have a mountain of it left, you may be a deplorable.
Guilty as charged!
Anyone see Springfields 5.56 handgun with folding or telescoping stocks?
PCC is Nothing new.
There are documented original Winchesters that left the factory with barrels as short as 12 inches. If I am not mistaken, the originals, with suitable ATF letter, are not NFA items.
