abstract="AIM: To better understand the mental state of people who complete suicide in shooting ranges/galleries. <br><br>METHOD: The public record was searched via the web using various search engines and the words &quot;suicide shooting gallery&quot; and &quot;suicide shooting range&quot;. When names of individuals appeared, they were used to further search for information about the event, paying particular attention to any evidence suggesting the presence of mental disorder. <br><br>RESULTS: Twenty-two cases were located. Nineteen (83%) were male and the average age was 36 years, with a range from 21 to 75 years. We present 6 case vignettes: in 3 there was evidence of mental disorder, while in the other 3 there was no evidence of mental disorder. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Like the people who complete suicide in other locations, some of the people who complete suicide in shooting ranges/galleries are suffering from mental disorder, while some are not, and other triggers are present.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
