Help with IDPA - Page 2

That's what I thought to, execpt for the part :

"slide down with a round remaining in the chamber"

reffering to what was not allowed... The slide is down and a round in the chamber durring a Tatical reload....

That is probably right, it is just worded a bit weird to me...

I'm pretty sure that if you don't drop any live rounds, your good, right (even though I would not even drop an empty mag)?

oh, and what is SSR?

SSR= Stock Service Revolver

Wheelgun class ;-).. Both my wife and I, you see I love reloading and hate chasing brass. Besides, I figure if you can shoot a wheelgun fast it helps with DA semi-autos, I know I've never had a problem with my first shot outta a DA

There are only two kinds of allowed reloads in IDPA.

Slide lock back empty and drop the mag(after all, the gun is empty),

or change the mag at the gun (tactical) or from the pouch(retained). In either case the partial mag is retained.
