At our last monthly shoot, we had a shooter who was counting rounds. He would drop his empty magazine on the
ground and reload while there was still one round left in the chamber. He was reloading from cover as required. The only thing I could find in the rule book
is noted below.
Reload with Retention: Recharging the gun during a lull in the action by: Dropping the partial magazine
from the gun, Stowing the partial magazine properly (See "proper magazine retention.") Drawing a spare magazine. Inserting the spare magazine into
the gun.
NOTE: Should the CoF call for a Reload with Retention and the
magazine is empty while a round remains in the chamber, the empty magazine must be retained.
Is this legal and with in the rules? There was nothing in the stage that called for a reload with retention or tac reload.
Thanks, Loren
