    CZ Shadows / TSOs not drop safe

    in CZ

    That sounds about right. Imagine the RO standing beside you and in back a little. You load, lower the hammer, and, while looking down range, still gathering your plan (or, just going over it again), you go to holster, like you have 1k times before, without looking. You drop the gun into the holster (assume the most typical kydex holster, no serious retention), but instead of dropping it into the holster, you miss slightly, catching the muzzle on the front of the holster, flipping the gun out of your hand, rotating it forward, and then falling. It would most likely hit hammer first, pointing backwards and up...right where the RO would be standing. 

     

    Wouldn't this be a dropped gun.

    This rule should be enforced even when holstering. Dropping your gun in the holster is still a dropped gun.

     

    Dropped gun - A condition in which a competitor loses control of their firearm. Loss of control does not require the firearm to land on the ground or other range surface or prop. It occurs anytime the firearm is no longer in control of either hand, even if it is trapped against part of the body or caught in midair.

    Yes it is.............don't tell anyone (just kidding.....tell everyone...) but they will host this year's Sectional, 2017 sectional and the 2017 & 2018 Area 5 Matches..........so 4 majors in the next three years. My hat is off to the members at the range for taking on some big projects. My whole crew from IPSC66 is looking forward to seeing what they can do.

    Thanks Roy

    We are going to need all the help we can get.
