My recollection is that you can't use chest rigs, but off your belt with the rest you should be fine.

I know gere in Australia we call gaffer tape also 100 mph tape, its the fabric type of tape used to patch aircraft, where as the duct tape maybe the plastic type tape.

they are replaceable, and the gun would not be servicale without one, but I'll leave that to the experts Mike

Just my reading of the rulebook

duct tape and gaffer tape are the same isnt it?

I would take my reply with a grain of salt, check with your local NROI to confirm it if you are intending to buy one.

Isn't it strange that we can't allow brass mag bases but we can allow brass grips and backstraps....

For PO I would say yes as long as per the Rulebook they are same as OEM;- 19.3 Aftermarket grip panels which match the profile and contours of the OFM standard or optional grip panels for the approved handgun and/or the application of tape on grips (see Appendix E3a) are permitted. I've seen plenty of brass grips being used so can't see why the backstrap couldn't be.

Considering there is no Std Optics division its an invalid question, however it will depend on if it does happen and they use the Std div rule set yes it would be ok.

Try asking on the IPSC RULES ANSWERS facebook page, Doubt you'll get a reply and if you do it doesn't hold any value.

No its not OEM its aftermarket, as I said earlier, the other guns with an enlarged slide stop would have originally been approved with that slide stop. The Sig 320 { any model} was not. Good luck getting a reply from IPSC/IROA, we've been chasing answers from them for years with very little to no response and that's from our National IRO/NROI rep.

The answer is NO as they are far too heavy, brass is not allowed and I've not seen any with steel. Aluminium and plastic are usually ok but there were even some aluminium that were solid that were frowned upon and IPSCA tried to get a weight limit on them but that was not approved instead they stick with the silly description they have now. "bumper pads and additional witness holes, which add or remove negligible weight to/from magazines, are permitted".

Do you really want an answer to that question?

That thumbrest is not an OEM part, yes it is sold via the Sig store but its made by *thumb rest [generic]* and is not offered by Sig as OEM

I believe that was VP's response for many years "plastic or aluminium were ok" .
