I recently did my first qualification and was told by my instructor that if I had a malfunction it was my responsibility to clear it and if I could and still get those shots off they would count. If I could not clear it and get the shots off it would be just as if I missed them.

I had no malfunctions, but I felt I could have handled them if I did.

I agree with the way he handled the testing; if I cannot clear a malfunction in the weapon I carry then I should not carry it and that should hurt me on any proficiency test I take with that weapon.

That being said; on the first shots of the test he had us load five rounds into the magazines and said "Fire ONE round at the whistle" he blew the whistle and one guy emptied this magazine into the target.

The guy was pretty embarassed but he needed to LISTEN and PAY ATTENTION! He had been pretty "excited" through the whole class...
