1SOW,
I should have said I place my thumb on the safety, not drop the safety. Yes production is a hammer down start you are correct.
Ran two training sessions of 200 rounds each last week, a match on Saturday, and a Wounded Warrion (DAV fund raiser at USSA) afterward for another 400 rounds. Shadow ran flawlessly, no safety issues, feed isuues. My best classifier yet. 18 A's 2 C's and a total time of 11.36 seconds including two draws and two reloads.
