Jesse Tischauser Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Jesse, did you dump your pistol into the 55 gallon bucket on the long range stage!!!! That's brave! We all did on our squad. They said we had to clear it just in case it got pointed the wrong way or we could set it on a wet barrel on safe. We all opted for a clear and drop. Just in case..................... what??? Isn't that a DQ?? The DQ isn't the important part that's just the result of an unsafe act. The loaded gun pointing at someone is the issue. The problem with the stage design was that there was not a good safe way of grounding your pistol. The choice grounding in a safe condition on top of a wet slippery barrel or empty in a barrel with a bunch of bunch up carpet in it that was meant for long guns.

It changed at some point as there was carpet on top of the barrel when we shot the stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damnit! Having to clear that pistol cost me 2-3 seconds. That time could have been used for 5-8 more misses on the long stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
