The clearing procedure is about the dumbest thing I have ever heard.
1. You do not pull the trigger unless you want it to go boom
2. I am not real thrilled about potentially damaging internal components of an expensive gun

BM,
This clearing procedure all started with Cooper in the leatherslap matches in the 70"s.
It is the norm at all cold ranges where matches are held for IDPA,
and all matches conducted by USPSA, IPSC (all countries), The Steel Challenge, The Bianchi Cup, Second Chance, and The Single Stack Challenge.
I have attended all these matches and watched the hammers fall on some
3000- 5000 dollar guns without a peep from the shooters.
I admit that I don't know about "Bullseye Matches" as I don't compete
in matches where you come to the line with your gun in a bag.
Just a little something for you to think about before you try to school those boys at Elm Fork.
