Thrown Weapons:Equipment standards - General standards and safety

General standards and safety

1. You have the final responsibility for the proper care and safe use of your weapons and equipment, and for knowing and following Society and your kingdom's thrown weapons rules. There may also be mundane laws that apply to the possession and use of throwing weapons for practices and competitions.
2. You must not knowingly use unsafe weapons or equipment.
3. Before taking part in any thrown weapons activities, your weapons and equipment must be inspected and approved by a marshal warranted for this purpose and activity. See Inspecting equipment
   1. At any time, if you are unsure of the safety of your equipment, request the assistance of a thrown weapons marshal in inspecting your equipment.
   2. The thrown weapons marshal can re-inspect your equipment at any time.
4. The thrown weapons marshal inspecting your weapons or equipment will make a reasonable attempt to locate any unsafe conditions or violations of kingdom rules and inform you of what is found and how to correct it.
5. The inspection by the thrown weapons marshal may not find all equipment faults and is conducted as a service to all the throwers on the line. It does not remove your primary responsibility for the safe condition of your own equipment.
6. If a thrown weapons marshal has said that your equipment is not safe, you must not use it until it is made safe and re-inspected by a thrown weapons marshal.
