How do figure that the dreaded outlaw matches are unsafe?
After shooting in over 20 three-gun matches under both USPSA / IMG I know that the safety rules are virtually the same from match to match and some green bean will error in every match, I will wager that when you were a FNG the same applyed.
As for as hot re holstering, you start every USPSA pistol stage by hot holstering, I feel confident that I will not blow off my leg, and like wise the people I shoot with. The newbies, we OR extra close on the stage and keep an eye on them the rest of the time, as a we should. Stress reloading can be controlled by the RO, if sees the shooter struggling slow him down.
