Now, as far as barrel discipline goes, mine is beyong reproach. I've grown up with guns my whole life (been shooting since I was 7), so I have the proper respect for any firearm. The first thing I do when I get marked on a field is put my barrel bag on, plug the battery, click the safety, and disconnect the air. If a ball come out of my E-Mag that means Jean Grey from the X-Men did it.
Now, for my friend who was borrowing the E-99. I frankly, should have had a bag on it, but the field specifically allows plugs and I didn't have a spare bag. The field sells them for $9 so I just planned on ordering one from the web later that day (I didn't, I ordered a set of 5). And it was a pertty remarkable set of circumstances that caused her indiscriminate fire. She had the gun pointed straight up, hands nowhere near the trigger, the safety on, and barrel plug in. They Sypder lacks an "off" switch (to the best of my knowledge), and the only way I know to turn it completely off is to take out the battery, which requires tools, so I tend not to do it. She was frankly, pretty safe (not perfect, but hardly the worst case of the day). The problems were that A) she was on full auto, so when all the circumstances went completely wrong she didn't fire one shot, but 50 and B) she flustered the second her gun started firing, a complete deer in the headlights effect.
And about the dead zone. The dead zones at this field are goggle free zones, with netting and everything you would expect. Although, field barrel discipline is simply terrible, so i wear shatter proof wrap around shooting glasses whenever my mask is off, no matter where i am.
