Fire caused by residual dust and powder under a WOOD floor. Back in the bronze age, a range I frequented in California had carpet on the range floor. Saw that catch fire on more then one occasion.

Happened here a few years ago, place went up like a box of matches. I seriously don't know how an indoor range could get away with carpet in it. Oh, well it turned out well for all involved. No one was hurt when it went up and the place got rebuilt and is actually a half decent place now.

Is it me or was the muzzle flash excessive? It was as if they were firing incendiary ammo.
I've seen a range fire before, but nothing as explosive as that. That flashed with intensity. I hope the officers were wearing FR clothes, and are OK.
I haven’t been able to find any info that tells us what. Definitely high flash, low recoil. I surmise either LL or blanks. With the women in the back taking photos I wonders if they were doing some half assed photo op for something.

Our indoor range has a concrete floor. Every once in a while it will flash fire over, particularly in the seams where unburnt powder and paper from targets accumulates. It usually burns itself out pretty quickly, and they don’t try to extinguish it, as the chemicals mess up the air filtration system.
