2-way range - That was just my point when posting this. Have the tools needed to fix these things. Had that happened with someone shooting back, it could have gone very bad. I've been involved in one shooting and one very near shooting. With the absolute breakdown of thinking anything through, who knows what would have happened.
I don't know. Like I said, I run through drills with and without the BAD Lever since I don't want using the bolt lock alone to become as foreign as using the BAD Lever once was. The likelihood of being in another shooting is very slim itself, but having this kind of failure on top of it is probably 1:1,000,000.
I guess I need to think it over and see where it takes me. I'm interested to hear some more opinions on this as well. Thanks to everyone that's posted so far.
