Buzzer bugout

[Justinsaneok]

The buzzer went off and I looked around the barricade, stepped OUT of the shooters box with my right foot and began to lay down HEAVY cover fire downrange at those cardboard commies for my fellow shooters behind the firing line. The popper didn't fall that ended the match so I shot it again. Afterwards I cleared and holstered my gun and tried to remember what had happened. Placed my spent shells in my shell holder and realized my hand was shaking like crazy. What a rush!!! Some joker said nice splits. Then I said "did I hit anything?" and he replied "the popper on the 2nd try!!" I had a procedural error and missed almost everything. This was my first course of fire in an IDPA match. This fear inducing panic cost me the match. It was my first time using a timer and the first time I ever competed. I am so hooked!!! These are the results, I am Justin. Look at the times. It only happened once!
