Hoss 707 Posted July 14, 2019 Two similar scenarios dualist draws pistol, not happy with grip. Puts crown of muzzle (pointing straight down) against shelf while regripping Shooter loads pistol with muzzle pressed (pointing straight down) against loading table.

Goody, SASS #26190 662 Posted July 14, 2019 no call in either case. Answer rescinded due to change in the original question. "POINTING STRAIGHT DOWN" added after I had answered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Widder, SASS #59054 4,654 Posted July 14, 2019 Sounds like the shooter didn't break the 170. and pistol never left the shooters hand. No Call ..........Widder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smokestack SASS#87384 1,331 Posted July 14, 2019 On the line, SDQ, loading table would depend on range design. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheyenne Culpepper 32827 915 Posted July 14, 2019 straight down, 90 degrees, is only 5 degrees of the 170 pretty close to make a call,,,, the 170 applies at the LT as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It depends on stage design. For instance, the way the stages at EOT are designed, the 170° doesn’t apply at the loading or unloading tables. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would make a difference in the call, as Smokestack has already addressed. ..........Widder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
