Shooters handbook, page 43, Glossary of terms

"Dropped firearm--a firearm that has left the shooters control and comes to rest at a location or position other that where it was intended"

 

Page 42  RO Pocket card--  "any  dropped unloaded firearm on the firing line"  SDQ

 

Page 42  RO Pocket card--  "dropped gun loaded"  MDQ

 

Page 17  Safety and Handling Conventions-All Firearms-- "Any unloaded firearm dropped on the firing line will result in a stage disqualification penalty assessment.

This does not apply to holstered revolvers that remain "in leather" in the event of an equipment failure (e.g., broken belt buckle causing the gun belt or ammo belt to fall)

 

Shouldn't the Glossary of Terms and the RO Pocket cards be amended to reflect the exception?

There's not enough room on the pocket card for every exception.  Sometimes you have to consult the experts or break out the book.
