Air Marshal Leaves Plane After Dropping Bullets

[Guns_and_Labs]

Ammo falling out of a loaded mag when dropped is not normal. One round, possible, but the article indicates multiple rounds. I've thrown more mags to the ground in training or IDPA than I can count. I don't think one round has ever come loose other than the half stripped round that caused a malfunction. I'm callling BS on this storys details.

I must attend more amusing matches. Last month, one guy slammed home a reload, without noticing that the removeable base and base pad were no longer attached. Result: eight rounds on the ground, and the mag stuck in his pistol. Plus an RO trying so hard not to laugh.

Then there was the guy who's reload slipped out of his hand (never lube the mag), hit a barrier, and ...

Never mind. Stuff happens. I'd still hate to be the air marshall crawling around the airplane gathering loose rounds.
