Took the opportunity to down load the entire Shoot to Live manual from the website. What a fantastic resource. This manual is by far the best discussion on how to teach someone to shoot I've ever seen. Far better than anything the US has put together to include anything by the Marines. Hats off to the authors.

By doing so, there's a chance, albeit a very slight one, of drill and live rounds being mixed up in the future

Its not even slight if you are an unsupervised moron employed by Thames Valley Police. Firearms officer 'shot colleague with live ammunition kept in Quality St tin' - Telegraph

Dude broke a few of the Ten Commandments of firearms handling,,
Do not cover anything with the muzzle you do not wish to destroy.
Treat every firearm as if it is loaded at all times.

A moron indeed,,,,
