I just received word from a customer of mine about some guy shooting himself in the leg at an IDPA indoor championship. I might add that at this same club at a different match a guy was pointing a loaded gun back up range and nothing was done about it. After viewing the video of another guy making a mag change, pointing the gun back up range with his finger on the trigger I have to wonder why safety infractions are not handled in a better manner.
Before someone takes this out of context I'm not bashing IDPA or any of the shooting sports.
I have shot in Steel matches, Pin matches, Action Pistol matches, USPSA matches and Single Stack matches all over the USA; the safety infractions I've seen have been few but the ones I have wittnessed the shooter was DQed on the spot.
My question is, why is IDPA so lax on safety infractions?
