Zmego Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 This question came up while discussing this with a buddy of mine. He said that because I have the DP numbered grip tape on my magazines that it would change me from Limited to Open. Is this true? I tried to find the rule but I got lost.

splashdown Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) This will not bump you from Limited to Open. It is even legal in Production. Look at Appendix D4, 21.7. Edited March 31, 2013 by splashdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxximuss Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I think it does change your class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Miles Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 If the grip tape is on the bottom of your mag base pads and that tape causes your mags to be too long for the gauge for Limited class... welcome to open. Yes, it can happen. If your mags still fit in the gauge you are good to go in Limited. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that because I have the DP numbered grip tape on my magazines that it would change me from Limited to Open. Is this true? I tried to find the rule but I got lost. Yes it'd bump you from Production to Open if the gun won't fit in the box (very, very, VERY unlikely) or if it causes it to go over weight (also very, very, VERY unlikely) but otherwise it's legal.Yes it'd bump you from Limited to Open if it caused the mags to not fit the gauge (141.5mm) but otherwise it's legal.

spanky Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) A friend of mine, Jeff Bailey, was shooting a big match and he got bumped a couple years ago. I believe the rule for Production was changed recently (2011 or 2012 maybe). Edited April 2, 2013 by spanky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
