How To: How NOT to DQ
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 07. 2024
- Video that explains the most common types of Disqualifications (DQ's) in IPSC, and some pragmatic tips on how to avoid them. This video is primarily focused on new and beginner shooters. A DQ can hapen to anyone. It is not the end of the world! Stay calm, humble and be respectful to the RO. Once the range is safe and clear, he/she will be glad to explain their observation and decision to DQ. The most important thing is that you learn from what happened. More interesting Practical Shooting content, projects and polls on the "Community Tab" on my Channel! Let me know in the Comments below if you were already DQ'ed, why and what you learned. Also, check out the "DQ"-Playlist in the link below for many DQ-examples.

Very informative! You covered everything! Good work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. Thank You.
You are welcome!
With regards to unload, show clear, hammer down and holster, Ive seen shooters that rack their slide mindlessly and pull the trigger. The shooter should always check to make sure there is no cartridge chambered before executing a hammer down. What if you forgot to remove the magazine? What if your extractor is broken?
One factual error that I noticed is that at 11:21 you are saying that if the RO catches you with the finger on the trigger during movement "too many times" it will lead to a DQ, No, it will lead to a DQ in the first instance that the RO catches you doing so. There is no leeway here according to the IPSC rulebook. (Rule 10.5.11)
Good video thanks
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Very Very helpful. thank you for the great review.

dutch open 2018 1st stage ;-) miss u my friend, nice vids!!
Bedankt Nico!
Wish I saw this before my first match. Got DQ’d opening a door and swept myself
Thanks for sharing your experience. DQ's can happen to everyone. The most important thing is that you, RO and bystanders are OK. The rest is unimportant. DQ's are important lessons to grow.
Thank you - one dumb question: Everybody just always says no handling of ammunition in the safe area - were amd when do you fill / refill your magazines?
Hi, every range might have different local rules. Always good to ask the responsible person there where you are allowed to load the mags. Mostly it will be on the actual range/bay itself, somewhere near the stages.
@@ipsc-guru thank you
Wow, is the finger on the trigger -rule really that forgiving in IPSC? That explains the many accidental discharge DQ:s I've seen in CZcams. In Finland we have an action shooting sport called 'SRA', similar to IPSC, and in that if you even momentarily place your finger on the trigger when not engaging targets it's immediately DQ. No warnings beforehand. So the finger rule is taught as the most important rule in this sport.
Hi Tilley 12358, to clarify, an RO is, according to the IPSC rules, perfectly entitled to immediately stop and DQ an IPSC shooter for a finger on the trigger, when not engaging targets, but many don't the first time and will resort to a one time warning.
@@ipsc-guru I am glad our ROs are very strict about that, and issues a DQ on the first offense, and only issues a warning if they were not 100% sure. Iit makes sure all of us are well versed in the rule, and less of a chance to do it later.
I didnt know about the DQ from dropping your gun.
Indeed: While on stage under supervision of RO = DQ. Anywhere else on the range and not picking it up and call RO = no DQ. If you pick it up yourself = DQ.
@@ipsc-guru So if I walk between stages and the gun fall of my holster to the ground. I have to only look at it and nobody can touch it except any RO that has to be around. Let us also say this is on a car road, and a car is approaching, I then have to just see the car drive over my gun? xD
@@leolundgren2054 Hi Leo, if your gun falls out of your holster outside the CoF or on the CoF, but before the beep, the rules indeed state that you have to freeze the situation, stay clear of the gun and call in a RO to pick it up, clear it safely and return it back to you to be put in an appropriate pouch/container or holster. I'm not aware of exceptions, as for example stated in your comment. During matches, usually there are multiple RO's present, often in walking distance. Obviously, if no one is around and didn't see what happened, no one knows, but if someone saw it, especially a match official, you get DQ'ed for sure. I always recommend to follow the rules. You'll be briefly ashamed, but you can continue the match.
@@ipsc-guru Thanks for the quick respons! Yeah I understand! I tried to order the revised IPSC-rulebook to have a physical copy.
The most common type of all DQ I have personally heard is breaking the safety angles. Especially happening when reloading the gun while running towards weak hand side and/or also running backwards. (It happened to me last weekend too...)
@@leolundgren2054 2023 HG rulebook: www.ipsc.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/IPSC-Handgun-Competition-Rules-Apr-2023-Edition-Final-25-Apr-2023.pdf and indeed, breaking the 90° occurs alot, as well as AD's.
Anybody ever noticed how almost all of us sweep ourselves when drawing and re- holstering? Can anyone share their process for not, at least momentarily, pointing at their strong side foot while coming in and out of the holster?
Hi Paul, cfr. the IPSC rulebook. It mentions specifically that sweeping does not apply during drawing and holstering the gun.
@@ipsc-guru Thats good to know and thank you. I’ll have to look and see if USPSA has a comparable rule.
If I'm not mistaken, I do think it's similar.
Basically I carry top of back and unholster similar to how a ninja unsheathes his sword
No such thing as a an “accidental discharge.” They are ALL negligent discharges. While you may not have intentionally discharged the firearm, your negligence was the sole cause. Sugar coating doesn’t change this.
Hi Paul, I understand what you mean, but AD is what it's called in the IPSC rulebook.
@@ipsc-guru Yep completely agree. That’s the sugar coating I mentioned. As a retired lawyer, I can certainly understand why we do so. 😉
