The shooter did all the right moves to be safe, therefor no one got hurt. The RO is a great one by using this as a training excercise instead of jumping all over that guy. Well done on both parts.

Saw this a while back. I think the clapping is a bit over the top.

And I find it difficult to believe the woman who also says she saw his finger nowhere the trigger could actually see that.

Screen shot. She's ten feet behind both men and off angle. Not sure how she saw anything?

That was most likely "trigger bounce" caused by either too heavy a trigger (reason they make skeletonized triggers) or too light or short of a trigger pull, or a combination thereof.

The match director of an IDPA match I was in had that happen to him on one of the stages and he had to disqualify himself from the match. In his case it was because he had the trigger pull down to ounces.
