IHAVEGAS Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 On about the third stage of a recent match, when a competitor went to make ready a loose bullet dropped out of the chamber. Apparently on the previous show clear the bullet had stuck in the gun when the case was ejected. Is there a penalty? Playing around with things, I can see a loose bullet only in the chamber of my gun, but to do so I have to work harder at looking down in the barrel than you see competitors or r.o.'s do on a normal 'show clear'.

Sarge Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Since typically RM's will just tell you to go pound it out when they verify it, it wouldn't be a penalty in my mind. Heck, I have verified it as a CRO and loaned them my squib rod to take to a safe area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler2you Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 "Loaded Firearm : A firearm having a live round, empty case or dummy round in the chamber or cylinder, or having a live or dummy round in a magazine inserted in the firearm." The bullet alone isn't a live or dummy round, so no penalty/DQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
