Dan Hefta Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Are you seriously asking us to pass the open book exam for you? The answers are all in the book, just be patient and look a little harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Brass and Muzzle will answer all of your questions. Brass did nothing for me. Empty case got me closer to the truth. But I must admit question 1 takes some effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use exam time to brush up on the book. And unless you carry a laptop in your shooting bag, you need to be able to search out those rules in the middle of a match. Bill (p.s. In my truck at major matches you will find a laptop with the rules book on the hard drive.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppa Bear Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Brass and Muzzle will answer all of your questions. Brass did nothing for me. Empty case got me closer to the truth. But I must admit question 1 takes some effort. You are right. I was not thinking about that part, or maybe I was subconsciously just trying to challenge him further. I had that question on my exam and it took me a minute to find the rule. It helps when you use the right search terms. It is one of the better questions on the exam in my opinion because you know the right call, but it forces you to think about the applicable rules to site so that it cannot be overturned in arbitration.

Sarge Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Geez, you guys make me feel so outdated. I just have the rule book in my range bag. And I have a spare in the bathroom. It's a good read. Edited October 11, 2012 by Sarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lef-t Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I love having it on my phone. It's settled many heated debates that just get ramped up when someone goes for the rulebook in their bag. It's inconspicuous to be "playing" on your phone while others argue and then you magically have a rule to cite. It's fun to see how quiet some people get when you read a rule verbatim to solve a dispute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sperman Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 I'm pretty sure there are apps out there that allow you to read a PDF file on your droid/i-phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
