OK here is the idea. It is basicly the El Prez. BUT here is the twist start with gun unloaded AND holstered, so you turn,load,rack slide,ect... And call it El Conquistador ( El = means THE and Conquistador = means conquer) The Conquer
Wouldn't be legal under the current rules... neither is the El Prez for that matter.
Care to elaborate?
Corey, the first thing that comes to mind... To become a "classifier" it must be shot at a level III and also have the appropriate number of GMs shooting it, to give us a baseline HF. Until a stage has been accepted as a "classifier" it needs to comply with the rules of stage design. 1.1.5 says it must be "Freestyle" and the exceptions are Standards or Classifiers, but since it hasn't been shot at a Level III yet, it's not a "classifier" (Can;t dictate mandatory reloads, shooting positions, or locations, the use of a box etc etc) and therefore can not take the classifier exemption under 1.1.5.2 which basically is there to grandfather classifiers which do not comply with current rules.
It is my understanding that all "illegal" classifiers will eventually be phased out as legal ones are shot and hf obtained.

So the most famous of all classifiers hasn't even been shot at a area match yet?
No, that's not what I'm saying, I'm saying that today you could not get the El Prez sanctioned as a classifier because it does not comply with the rules of stage design for level II-III. Since all new classifiers must comply with the rules BEFORE they may become a classifier, it would not be able to be shot because it does not comply and would be deemed to be an illegal stage for the reasons I stated above. Furthermore, it is my understanding that the "classifier exemption" is there to make a loophole by which the old classifiers may be shot under the rules, until they get more classifiers in the database. I would think when they have more stages in the database the exception would then be removed from the rules.
On a personal note, I would not like to see the El Prez go away.
Geez Jim, I hate it when you`re right
