What's worse is that the rule for a "shot" states: "Definition of a Shot: When the gun is addressing the lane/target, any discharge of air down the barrel is considered a shot. Shooters may announce their intention to discharge the gun into the ground without penalty of a miss. "
No mention of breaking the sear, because it is felt that breaking the sear is "intuitive".. So, if you load a pellet and forget to close the bolt, then pull the trigger, but don't release any air, it is not a shot. If a lawyer says to the judge that his client is innocent because it is intuitive that he didn't do it, what do you think the judge would say? Go ahead, Cliff, you had the right words for that.
