[QUOTE="Pstmstr, post: 1709349, member: 51164"] True. In the most recent case, the relatively new RO made the decision to give a new shooter a 2nd chance. The pistol was unloaded and the RO did stop him right as he was pulling it from the holster. That being said, it was a DQ offense and the shooter should have been DQ'd, explained what they did wrong, and hopefully come back next time. I've had to DQ several in the 3 years I've had my RO certification and I hated to with each one. 2 were new shooters and both came back to play again. We can't take safety too lightly. I was DQ'd myself in a match I paid $100 to enter for a stupid mistake I fully deserved to be. Action shooting is a very safe sport, you're son is more likely to be beaned by an errant foul ball or golf shot than he is a bullet but I definitely understand the concern. A DQable, offense needs to result in the shooter being done for today. I think the intention in this instance was good. We've all learned from it. [/QUOTE]
