    Is a dropped mag out of play

    in USPSA/IPSC Rules

    Posted

    You can always use them anytime:

    5.5.2 Spare magazines, speed loading devices or ammunition dropped or dis-carded by a competitor after the start signal may be retrieved, howev-er, their retrieval is, at all times, subject to all safety rules.

    This is why no one (scoring RO) or anybody else should pick up discarded mags on the COF until after range is clear...If a competitor goes back to get a discarded mag and its not there....reshoot! :angry2:

    Wow at a loss for words with most of them... Well the guy selling blue guns knows what he's talking about clearly... though I see his math skills may not be the best LOL. Good stuff. I'm amazed the trust your teammates guys are still alive.

    What constitutes unsafe ammunition?

    in USPSA/IPSC Rules

    Posted

    At a local level one match a competitor is having major ammo/gun problems...failure to eject failure to go into battery throught the fitst four or five stages competitor finally DQ's for sweeping himself while clearing a jam. Should his ammo been ruled "unsafe" before it went that far.

    Need a rule to support this answer.

    If the RO was watching closely enough to state he saw the shot miss he sould call a mike but to not touch it because the shooter asked for a calibration check. Folks if it falls then the shooter is going to be called a gaming woozy by the squad for the rest of the match. The 5 to 10 minutes it takes is not going to increase the number of shoot and scoot shooters beyond those who are lazy anyway.

    The rule says nothing about what the RO saw during the COF. Either the steel was hit or it was not. If there is no evidence of a hit on the popper, no call to RM, no calibration challenge.

    That's why the rule says steel must be painted.

    Happy New Year!

    :cheers:

    First thank you for your post on this question. I guess what I am looking for is a rule that supports the RO's authority to call the mike and deny the challenge without getting the RM involved. I hate grey zones...wish i could make this crystal clear to the shooter.

    During the course of fire,a competitor engages a pepper popper which does not fall. After the COF,the shooter challenges the calibration. The CRO cannot find ANY EVIDENCE OF A HIT and denies the challenge. Is the CRO correct in his ruling? I beleive the ruling is correct but cannot find the rule to support it.

    Lasik Surgery in North GA

    in Miscellaneous Topics That Do Not Fit in Any Other Forum

    I've come to realize I need to have Lasik Surgery if for nothing else, to prove to myself there truly is a front sight on my new gun. :roflol: I've spoken to others at matches that have had great success with it but I've never thought to ask anyone where they'd had it done. :wacko:

    I'd appriceate any advice on where to go, where NOT to go and what to look for, from anyone that's been there and done that in the Northern Atlanta area. I'm about 70 miles north of Atlanta but -as my wife pointed out- since I can drive over an hour to a match on a regular basis, I shouldn't complain about driving at least that far for surgery. :surprise:

    Thanks in advance...

    First of all good for you...Glad you gave it a chance. My wife and I started competitive shooting about a year ago with GSSF and have really enjoyed it. We were the range officers in bay 7 on saturday. Staci and I have begun shooting USPSA and Steel Challenge as well...Good luck with your new Glock. Fire away with the questions we are both glad to help.
