Matt was a good and upstanding person for the gun community in Texas. It's a shame to lose people as good as him, especially seeing how he just got married to Sandra and was starting his family. This fucking sucks ...

John / Sandra ... let me know if the forum can do ANYTHING for you guys.

It's been a rough day for everyone in the Lone Star family. Matt's family came in and I think everyone is in shock and trying to find a place to stand. There's a good outpouring of support for Matt, a testament to his upstanding character, and everyone had nothing but good things to say about him. We talked about what he's done with the range, all the hard work, and about his bachelor pad turned real house.

They are going ahead with the July 3rd range day. Matt, year after year, worked his tail off to put on a free range day every July 4th weekend. So if you are within driving distance and want to help out the family, show up and show your support on July 3rd.

That is absolutely awful!
His family is in my thoughts.
If I'm off work on the 3rd, I'll be out there to help if needed!

Terrible news.

My heart goes out to them. I will let all my buds know about this. My friends and I frequently use his facilities.

God be with them in their time of need.

Rock on
