I wouldn't worry about too many making GM in a day with any selection of classifiers in CO. According to President Foley we should have some valid CO HHFs soon though.

I was more expressing my thanks for not seeing six different close-range, three-target, single-string, no-reload classifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the best six been used I'd have been a C.... Best four of six: 39.89. Best six of eight: 40.16. Initial classification run logic... ugh. So the FIRST week the classification ran it gave me the 4 of 6 D (with 9 scores posted, 3 separate ones + 6 from a single classifier match). This week, with no additional scores added (but the same 9 present) it bumped me to C, counting 6 of the last 8. Must be a quirk in the system.

rowdyb Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 initial four for first classification. running best 6 after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when your initial score is generated when you have nine scores. I had three, no classification, added six. Got a classification based on the best four in the first run, then best six in the second run with no other changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHLChris Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I've been shooting CO since the start of it with a G17, shaped trigger guard, milled slide with an original DeltaPoint, lead shot epoxied into the grip and a tungsten guide rod. In January I was getting a little tired of dealing with so many reloads and pulled the trigger on building up a Glock 31 into an Open 40 gun. $2000 later and this decision was announced. At least I now have an open gun, but I am SUPER excited by the new rules. It has re-energized me for CO. Concerning choice of optics: The original DeltaPoint has a huge window! I bought a Venom for my open gun, but was sorely disappointed by its tiny window size. I put in on a shotgun, instead. For my open gun I bought a DP Pro, which has an even bigger window than the DP...almost as big as an RTS2! I also have an RMR and the glass (which is great for carry) is too distorted for competition, in my opinion. Too bad they are no longer available, because the original DeltaPoint is the best in every category for competition, in my opinion, with a milled slide or MOS/CORE.

CHLChris Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 At my first match with the new mags, I went up 10 spots just because of 4-6 fewer mag changes. Since there are still only 3-5 CO shooters around these parts, this new rule is gonna make a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterpuc Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I guess I didn't find the correct rules when I searched. I saw the 140mag, but still have to load 10? I thought I understood it was only limited by the magazine length. The below came from the USPSA website. 5 Minimum bullet caliber for Major Not applicable 6 Minimum trigger pull No 7 Maximum sizeHandgun No 8 Maximum magazine length 141.25mm 9 Maximum ammunition capacity Yes, maximum 10 rounds loaded in any magazine after the start signal 10 Max. distance of handgun and mags/speed loaders from inner side of belt Handgun and Mags - 2” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPENB Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 ETS 140 holds 22, I think. My factory 17 mag with a Dawson basepad holds 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
