[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3034987, member: 5412"] Your lucky. Took me about 8 years for the first one that was a mechanical malfunction. Several people saw my finger off the trigger, but the gun went off while preparing to clear it at the end of a stage. The DQ was because I had the gun pointed high, and the round left the range not impacting the berm. Now when I RO at a match, and give the range command that"if you are finished, unload and show clear, if clear, hammer down and holster" I'll have some of the new shooters point the pistol toward the sky, or down close to their feet. I'll quietly mention to them to clear, etc. with the gun pointed at the berm so if an ND or mechanical malfunction occurs, it won't be a DQ. I've passed my learning experience onto others. [/QUOTE]
