hopalong Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Is the trigger stop mentioned in the revolver forum legal for IDPA? For those who have not seen it it is basically a roll pin drilled and driven into the back of the trigger, thus removing the pin inside the spring on the trigger return. My 610 had a small "pinch" feeling in it today only once but I think it could have been the pin. As the rules say action work is permissible as long as it stays safe. My thinking is this would be legal as it is action work and we are working on reliability. Any body else? SAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Perez Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 I would second the "falls under action work " umbrella. Many revo gunsmiths include the installation of a trigger stop in a full blown action job. It does not meet the definition of external modifications as explained in the FAQ. Double check wit IDPA to be certain. CAN I POLISH THE TRIGGER FACE ON MY REVOLVER? Yes, we consider this part of the action work. “No external modifications” refers, primarily, to heavy barrels and other modifications that would change the appearance of the revolver and give a competitive advantage. I'm not taking mine out if it isn't legal , that's for sure . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moneypenny Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 any way you can post a picture? i don't get exactly what you mean, Over travel stops are totally legal and this SHOULD fall under action work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firewalker Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 DID anyone ever find out if external trigger stops are legal for IDPA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firewalker Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 I called IDPA headquarters and inquired about external trigger stop on revolver...Dru says it IS NOT LEGAL. Now to shoot in nationals i will have to grind mine off, or use a different revolver. At least before i went thru a DQ, after reading other posts I called and found out...
