Lancejr Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 If an acivator target breaks during a course of fire, what happens? Deny the re-shoot because the malfunction did not affect the competitor's attempt at the course of fire. Call the RM. Order a re-shoot because a broken prop is REF. Assess a ten point penalty for abuse of stage props. (i picked "Call the RM" am i right?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only point in referencing this was to indicate how even with a more defined description there were many opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyOne Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 So, you are taking the test...and asking for answers to the questions on here. How is this going to help you in the real world during a match? Are you going to ask all the shooters what the rule is to be followed? It is you who is taking the test, not the members and shooters on the forum. You have a rule book....read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
