I take offense to Flys post.

Maybe I (and apparently most everyone else who has re-affirmed my thoughts) took your question the wrong way. I did not mean it as an attack. Please elaborate on where you were going with your question.

I got all the information I needed from Julie's post. No further clarification is needed.
Match rules dictate it, fair enough. End of story.

I'm sorry gsd, but this is my OCD speaking. My post had really nothing to do with the rules of any game, and was much more about the lackadaisical attitude towards safe gun handling. I am talking about people learning and applying the same safe gun handling skills regardless of whether they are at a match or at home. And when someone points out an error, the shooter should take it to heart as they work to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Nothing to do with match rules, common sense says never to point a gun at something you do not want to destroy. Never means never, it does not matter if 25 people checked the firearm to see if it is unloaded, Never point a firearm at something you do not want to destroy.
If your intention is to destroy your arm by sweeping across it with the muzzle of a firearm, then this comment does not apply to you.

Here is a novel idea:
I am not that guy. So drop it.
