BiggMike Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 So I just bought a Witness Limited and I'm curious if mounting thumb-rest would be illegal in USPSA Limited division? Something to remember, as of Jan 1, 2013 thumb rests will be legal for the Limited Division. Check the latest Front Sight magazine on page 12.
