The R.O. he had follows the rules exactly and he was correct in the DQ even though it was a bit harsh.
Thank you for pointing that out, forgot to mention that... he was correct in the DQ, the rule I broke was a safety rule. The safety rules must be enforced or folks won't respect them, instead they will see what they can get away with and that simply won't do. No one gets a David Gregory exemption (current news story, google his name and that he wasn't prosecuted for having a large mag in DC) lol sorry had to throw in my political plug there...
On the otherhand, I would have liked a little grace since it was my first time and I didn't know I messed up. When I say "no biggie" I don't mean that as in the rule is stupid, I just mean that "I learned from it and let's pick up and go again"
Either way water under the bridge. And I can't wait for the next meeting, I have actually been practicing a little with target recognition and sight picture so I don't take to long trying to acquire the target. I pulled up the rule book and I'll have to see if I can print it at work, there seemed to be a lot of pages
