    SP01's should make it in CO now.

    Maybe a provision for IWB in front of the hip bone? Still have to have magazines and such behind weak side hip, but gun in front with the condition it is IWB? Seems silly to me but possible?

    That's similar to what I was thinking.

    USPSA continues to embrace the evolution in firearms technology and innovation. Numerous handgun manufacturers are now offering optics-ready platforms. The recent SHOT Show displayed more optics-ready carry guns than ever before. Custom gunsmiths often upgrade these factory offerings with front cocking serrations, cosmetic cuts, stippled grips, undercut trigger guards, buried optics and co-witnessed sights.

    In July of 2015, USPSA announced the provisional Carry Optics Division. During the past few months, the provisional division has exhibited slow but steady growth. The members interested in this division have spoken, and the USPSA Board of Directors has listened. The division will remain provisional, but for the remainder of 2016 will have some new opportunities.

    The changes for Carry Optics Division will make it truly unique from other divisions, and will include:

    -Authorization for all levels of USPSA and Steel Challenge

    - Expanded stippling, contouring and texturing of the grip frame to include undercut trigger guard and grip reduction

    -Expanded slide profiles to include serrations and cosmetic cuts not completely through the slide

    -Increased weight limit of 45 ounces, including optic and empty magazine, allowing more pistols to compete

    -Required use of a slide-mounted optic, prohibiting guns without an optic.

    The next review of the provisional Carry Optics Division is scheduled for late January 2017.

    Please note that making some of the changes now allowed in the provisional Carry Optics Division will render your handgun illegal for Production Division. A new appendix has been added to the online rulebook to aid shooters and match officials with the changes.

    DVC Classic and 3 gun

    in 1911-style Pistols

    Posted

    I can answer for DVC classic, with holes through slide that would be the slide lightening wich is not allowed according to IPSC rules for classic divisions.

    Yes and I know they are still complications around this gun to be allowed in IPSC classic, because front serrations does not resemble 1911 enough.....

    If you look at the pics, the classic doesn't have holes milled into the slide.

    Springfield EMP 10 Round mags

    Looks like that 10rd mag is actually from the new EMP 4

    "For over 100 years, the 1911 pistol design has earned high praise for its near-perfect ergonomics, reliability, and effectiveness.

    Springfield Armory® engineered the original EMP® with an all-new patented short action. Seventeen re-designed parts later, the EMP® came out a smaller, more comfortable, and more concealable package optimized for the smaller 9MM and .40SW calibers. Among the community of those who know, it has earned a reputation as one of the most shootable compact pistols ever.

    The all-new 4" Lightweight Champion™ offers a longer four-inch barrel that presents increased sight radius and more practical accuracy. Let's not forget the extra velocity the longer barrel adds to any given cartridge.

    Better yet, the EMP® 4" offers an extra half inch of height, providing plenty of room for a strong and positive grip. The EMP® 4" is loaded with extras like a fiber optic front sight and two-dot, low-profile combat rear sight for effortless target acquisition. Ambidextrous safety levers, a match-grade barrel, and Posi-Lock™ grip texture to the front strap add extra high value benefits for the serious shooter.

    Not only is the new EMP® 4" a controllable gun, it packs ten rounds (in 9mm) plus one more in the chamber. That's in a slender single stack pistol, not a thicker double stack design. In fact, the new EMP® 4" offers the same reduced grip circumference that made the original so successful.

    Looks aren't everything, but the Cocobolo wood grips and two-tone forged stainless steel slide and black anodized aluminum (9MM) or Carbon Steel Black Armory Kote™ (.40SW) frame make the EMP® a looker sure to turn heads at the range. But you know it's what's under the covers that counts.

    While the EMP® 4" might be the perfect carry gun, it's new size makes it ideal for home defense, concealed carry or a little fun at the range. Pick one up at your local gun store. You'll feel the difference."

    Tips For Fitting Infinity Trigger In STI

    in 1911-style Pistols

    Posted

    My triggers are getting here tomorrow. I decided to "pull the trigger" (hahahaha) on putting SVI interchangeable trigger systems in my limited gun and my open (3-gun) pistol.

    My thought is to modify the frame, if the triggers go out I will replace them with SVI bows. Im still not 100% on what I need to modify, Im assuming that the shannel is too narrow in the Y-axis not the X-axis.

    Ill try to take some pictures before and after when I fit them this weekend. If anything if it goes catastrophic you will know what not to do. (try to keep both beer and dremels out of the equation).

    I widen the frame (sides) where the trigger shoe goes, and take material off the trigger shoe (top/bottom)
