Man, You have got to be kidding to do a presentation with live rounds in a Magazine in a classroom in the first place. Anyone hear of snap caps? Take a few live rounds and pass them thru the class, but use plastic snap caps to show how a firearm mechanicaly functions, then if some jerk "jerks the trigger" snap no bang. I mean how hard is the above to do? Its how I teach my nieces and nephews about guns.
