Yup same thing, thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyofforty Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I once sat behind a guy with a SIG P220 in a shoulder holster during a class. Even though he never touched the pistol, that muzzle looked HUUUUGE when I was on the business end. Luckily, I survived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could easily have a loaded round in the sniper rifles, then pull out the little orange piece and give someone a really bad day. The whole point was about muzzle integrity. No, you can't "easily" have a round in the chamber, that's the whole point of the chamber flag. Are you saying you never go down range with a gun on the bench?

Are you saying you never go down range with a gun on the bench? But, you could. So, what was the point of walking in front of the muzzle exactly?

I could take my .45 FNX Tactical, right now, chamber a round, and I have and have a an extra flag I could insert, hand it to someone and declare it save, and watch them blow their head's off. But, I am not that kind of person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you know what you're talking about.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, now he is talking about "Intentionally" shooting another human being as opposed to proper muzzle control/safety to avoid an AD/ND.

usnret Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Last Sunday, at the range I go to...as I walked to the trash can I noticed the gent next to me, having some issue with his AR..with the muzzle pointed at where I was just standing. Doubt the walls between the lanes would stop a .223/5.56..I mentioned that I would appreciate it if he didn't point that thing at me..he got all huffy...always 10%...The range safety guy then mentioned muzzle discipline..they he 'got it'...

Thats not even close to the same thing as being in front of a gun on a bipod, or the bench with a chamber flag in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
