Saturday's IDPA Match - CHAINFIRE
Well, it started out with a bang. Technically 3 rapid fire bangs.
Something happened w/ my SW99. During the first stage of the first match, my gun malfunctioned and chain fired three, possibly four rounds. Freaking scary shit.
We stopped and took the gun offline. I had just cleaned it, so I can't blame it on any kind of fouling, but something weird happened.
I went back on the line and shot a full mag with not issues, so they let me re-run that stage.
Again, no issues and was able to shoot the rest of the match.
It left me very rattled tho. I only managed to place second in the Marksman category.
It was a 4 stage match and even trying relaxation exercises, it was not until the final stage before I felt settled down from the chain fire incident.
I will probably sent her off to the S&W factory for a check-up.
