You DQ a guy for his gun not firing???? Unless he is sweeping, what was the ground for the DQ?
"Dismounted"????
Did you mean he open the cylinder? And a delay fire occurred??? I would rule this the same as a pistol when it detonates:
10.4.3.1 Exception – a detonation, which occurs while unloading a handgun, is not considered a shot or discharge subject to a match disqualification, however, Rule 5.1.6 may apply.
hell yes I did. re-read the post-DQ cause it went off while he was looking at it-pointed down range but in the middle of remedial action. and no, it was a 1911.
