[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4266226, member: 5412"] Always emphasize the muzzle stays down range and pointed at the berm. A lot of accidents caused by a myriad of things can be mitigated by this one safety rule. I had a gunsmith work over a trigger on a pistol of mine that I use in steel challenge. During the stage, we had to transfer back to the start of the stage to unload, show clear, and put the pistol back in the case. On the walk back with multiple people including the RSO seeing my finger off the trigger, a spring or something gave way and the gun fired off a round which hit the berm where it was pointed.
