Considering what's already come to light, the fact that more will come out during discovery, the cost to defend this, plus the potential damages, and I think this will almost certainly bankrupt the organization.

Here's the 2020 Form 990-T. USPSA 2020 990-T.pdf

I don't think the lack of corporate standing impacts tax exempt status as that can be remedied fairly easily and actions taking during the revocation period are given full effect once the issue is resolved. But, failure to file required IRS Form 990, Return of Organisation Exempt from Income Tax, for three consecutive years typically results in automatic revocation (of tax exempt status). And from what I can see on the IRS website, USPSA hasn't filed that form since 2020. So, . . .

Kinda lost as to what fixed-time and Virginia count stages have to do with the lawsuit. Someone want to clue me in?

I believe the shape of the SV frame is slightly different where the upper grip part meets the dust cover part. I've had some non-SV grips on SV frames and there's a slight gap. Or it could have been the other way around. It's been a while. But, I do know it's just cosmetic, and very minor at that. They all played well together.

Worden. They should have went with him to begin with.

And what do members get to vote for? AD? Figurehead president with no power? Big whoop. Like that's going change anything. Hasn't in the past, and won't in the future.

Not only are members not renewing, but clubs are starting to do away with classifier stages for L1 matches. If that continues, maybe this will resolve itself in time.

Most people I know only shoot L1 matches and have decided not to renew their memberships. Partly because of the price increase, but also largely due to stuff like this. And there's a lot of it.

That's correct. And they'll be happy to have it.

A longer link isn't an issue if the rest of the barrel install is done correctly. And changing the link will have zero impact on the overhang anyway, unless the VIS cut on the frame is way off. If you have issues with the bullet nose hanging up on the overhang, you can move the bottom surface forward without hurting anything as the top round should be impacting at least half way up the feed ramp, not down on the bottom.

Not sure what you think I said, but noncompliance with filing requirements is not a criminal matter. And questions regarding powers of officers and directors of a void corporation would be matters for the chancery court (DE), not criminal court.

That's correct. And the lawyers, if they did so knowingly, or even negligently, could be subject to sanctions and/or disciplinary action.

How is the statement (regarding their corporate status as alleged in the complaint) not accurate? It's already proven to be true.

Again, not sure what any of that has to do with what I posted. The corporate status alleged in the filing, which is what I commented on, has already been verified by numerous individuals on this board, with the results posted above. I don't know the facts of the dispute, so I never expressed an opinion as to the validity of the underlying claims. I'm not sure what you're beef is, but I don't see any "vast preponderance of evidence" that what the guy alleged is factually incorrect, or that his suit is intended to "bully, harass, [etc.]." The fact that you don't like it means nothing. And attacking me for things that have nothing to do with what I posted, is pointless.

Mainly for tax and other benefits. Here's a summary: https://www.forbes.com/advisor/business/incorporating-in-delaware/

They are a DE corporation, so they have to comply with DE law in terms of filing requirements, etc. Failure to comply with those requirements typically impacts the legal status of the corporation, which is what's being alleged here.

Not sure what that has to do with what I posted. Do you really think they put that in the complaint without checking first? If you really think it's BS, for $10 and about five minutes of your time you can find out for yourself on the DE SOS web site. Failure to follow state filing requirements and/or articles of incorporation has legal implications for officers and directors of the corporation. Again, this is all basic corporate law. If the allegations are true, it's a pretty sad state of affairs. And that's just the corporate status part of it. What happened with the particular individual involved is a whole separate issue.

Wow! Highly unlikely they'd include the allegations about corporate status in the complaint if those weren't already verified as true. So, looks like the organisation and named individuals have a real problem on their hands. Same for their corporate counsel. That's pretty basic stuff. So, a real screw-up on their part.

Totally agree. As for shooting factory 9, a dot gun with minor pf means far less time spent on shooting skills vs. course negotiation, so there's practically no range time and therefore reloading is less attractive. Also, matches around here are sometimes 75+% newbies who get their info from the internet gun experts. So, they're all down for looking cool, having the latest gear (gotta be a 9 w/a dot) and LARPing. I mean, it's pretty standard now for dudes to show up for a match with an IFAK, including obligatory tourniquet, glow sticks, and all kinds of other kit. Kinda nuts.

Internet experts decided that 4.5/4.6 was optimal, and the sheep followed. I've found that for 9mm 2011, anything from 4.25 Commander length to 5.0 Govt Model size works just fine. Comes more down to personal preference. The Prodigy I built is a 4.25 with a titanium grip and the gun is so light it feels like a squirt gun. Shoots fine, but coming from a 5.4 Limited gun, it's kinda weird. Next LO build will probably be 4.5 of 5.0 with a steel grip and maybe even XWF frame. Since there's no recoil to start with, the weight isn't really necessary. Just want to make it closer to what I'm used to.

Most likely not. But, it would take less time to remove the top ends from the two guns and try it than to post the question here.

Weights - Su/T/R (routine varies) Cycling - M/W/F/S (mostly road 30-50 mi/day, XC or gravel 20+ mi/day when I have more time) range - W/S (250 rounds each drills one day, mini courses, etc. the other)

If a rule is ambiguous, it should be interpreted in a manner that's most favourable to the shooter. If those in charge don't like that approach, they should change the rule. Not interpret it on an ad hoc basis.

Gunsmith screwdrivers should be hollow ground type, which means the sides of the blade that go into the screw slot are straight and parallel, not tapered like typical screwdriver. This applies more torque to the fastener and keeps from chewing up the screw heads. For punches, Starrett machinist punches are pretty munch industry standard for steel. And various companies make solid brass or brass tipped for more delicate stuff. There are also nylon/Delrin tipped punches for non-marring. You can get that stuff from Brownells, McMaster-Carr or various other sources. On the trigger work, there's plenty of videos and info available online. Brownells also has a good write-up somewhere on their web site for how to do a decent trigger job. Just make sure you understand what you're doing before you start modifying parts. And be sure to test your work.
