    Production* optics. Smh

    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.

    However, you can order a weapon from Sig Sauer with only this special take down lever and then you won't have anything else. Then in this case it is an OEM part or not? I guess it would be different, if Sig wouldn't offer the take down lever on their webpage and i just could buy it as a aftermarket item at the original supplier.

    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. 

  3. 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".

    Factory basepads are stamped from steel on many mags.

     

    Also slap on enough aluminum and you can make it kind of heavy.  Pretty sure IPSC doesn't want that.

     

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

    There's been significant discussion within IROA over the last year or so as to what constitutes "significant weight" with no discernable answer as yet.

    Australia tried to introduce a weight limit last GA but it was voted down so we still have this stupid "negligible/ significant weight" rule

    I have a feeling that there are regional differences. Start positions are often demonstrated, or it could be standing naturally anywhere in the shooting area (referring to "APPENDIX E2: Diagram of Equipment Position", for "standing naturally").

     

    I don't think I've SEEN the direction of the head dictated, unless starting facing uprange with wrists above shoulders. Direction of the body might be determined by mandating foot locations (heels or toes touching marked spots on a fault line).

     

     

    The RO's in Australia tried that but was over ruled by the National NROI

    LO

    Tried the Toni systems but didn't work out due to dovetail, now have the EGW took a bit of time to find one here. Only a couple of mm thicker than the Toni systems. Will eventually be milled depending on what happens with the Division in IPSC.

  7. From the IPSC Rule Book.

    I'm surprised given the prevalence of CC that you guy's don't have a similar rule to cover it. Possibly the DQ was because of how much time it took to approach an RO. But I probably given the guy a bit of slack being his first match. 

     

    5.2.1.1 Competitors arriving at an IPSC match in possession of a loaded firearm must immediately report to a Range Officer, who will supervise unloading of the firearm. Competitors failing to comply may be subject to Rule 10.5.14.

    The non-replaceable battery may be the price of the small package size.  I don't think there is a current production cell phone with a replaceable battery, but I could be wrong because I haven't really investigated.

    My Samsung x cover cell phones have replaceable batteries, quicker to replace them than to recharge when needed.
