Shot an informal sporting clays tournament yesterday. It was busy and backed up. I was last up in my group on station 3, and when my turn finally came around my gun wasn't on the rack. An unaccounted for citori was on the rack. Hmm? Go down to station 4 figuring someone inadvertently grabbed my gun. As I walked up a guy was shooting his last pair with my superposed (pretty well, he broke 8/10). Different models, different length barrels, his barrels were ported -mine aren't. I had a magnetic glowing hi-viz front bead on, he had a standard bead. He shot 5 pairs and didn't notice! WTF? This lack of awareness kind of seems like how accidents happen.

Anyway, was this some sort of foul? It messed up my rhythm and mindset. He could have put covid snot on my gun.

I suppose it really isn't at all surprising to hear that a shooter grabbed the wrong Browning shotgun out of a gun rack, even though they had very different features.

It isn't even surprising to hear about another shooter "mistaking" an 870 pump for a K 80 over/under. Hell, right here we have a number of guys who were blind and dumb enough to think that a life-long career anti-gun Democrat like Joe Biden would not be a threat to our 2nd Amendment gun rights. Stuff like that really does make a strong case for intelligence testing for voters...
