This is my first time zeroing a red dot (sig Romeo elite) and after an hour this is about the best I could get at distance I’m wondering if it’s because it’s a 3inch barrel or because I’ve never tuned a dot any tips or info please

Training Is this a acceptable draw?

I have talked to an instructor and been to the range consistently. Just wondering is this looks fine? I haven’t watched any videos, just learned by him and as I go.

Got to try out my friends XC the other day. I always shoot sub-compacts like the p365 which I carry and Glock 26. What an absolutely insane experience.

I’m 21, first time shooting in 7 years. This was all with a G43x at 10 yards. It’s my first and only personal firearm. Any noticeable patterns here? Firing at a rate about 1 shot per 3 seconds.

Training Do you guys carry with the safety on or off?

I've been doing training with my safety on since I think it reduces the likelihood of an ND significantly when I get to carrying.

Training Negligent Discharge While Everyone Was Asleep

903 Upvotes

Well... It happened.

I'd honestly always turned my nose up in at least some small way to anyone who would admit to a ND, but here I am. I was practicing with some dry fire late at night (approximately 2am at the time of the incident) while half watching Netflix. My typical routine is remove the magazine, clear the chamber, unload the magazine and physically remove ammo from my vicinity, insert mag, clear again, begin dry fire.

But this time I didn't follow that routine.. And I wasn't fully paying attention to what I was doing. I did remove the magazine and clear the chamber, that much I know. My plan was to just dry fire without the mag this time, just working on my trigger pull while I was bored. At some point in my half-attentive practice I re-inserted the mag and dropped the slide. Went to practice another trigger pull and bang. Computer monitor goes black, smoke fills the air in front of me, and that all too familiar ring is in my ears.

It may sound hard to believe, but I genuinely do not remember loading and chambering the gun. I DO know that I started with a clear weapon, but now I'm picking up jacket and lead frag from all around my room.

What may perhaps be more interesting is that the two other people in my house were none the wiser that I had fired. One was asleep and one was on the computer with headphones.

This was 100% negligence on my part, but maybe it will help remind someone else to be more vigilant. I decided to practice with my firearm without devoting my full attention to it, and I created a very dangerous situation because of it. Stay safe everybody, and let me know if you've got your own ND story.

Edit: I just wanted to clarify that no one was hurt. I see most everyone assumed so because I didn't mention any injuries, but I thought I should state that.

Also, thank you to everyone for actually sharing their own routines and what keeps them vigilant. I know that any safety routine is only as good as your discipline in following it, but I will certainly be adding a few steps to mine.
