5.2.4 Spare ammunition, magazines and speed loaders should be carried in retention devices specifically designed
for that purpose. Carriage of additional magazines and speed loaders in REAR pockets of shorts or trousers is
also approved.
5.2.4.1 For table starts or similar, after the Start Signal, the competitor may carry those items anywhere on
their person, and this will not be treated as contravention of Divisional rules.

clothes are not equipment

read the rule book it says it should be at the REAR

it also says specifically designed for that purpose, with the exact size and placement of that pocket I would say that it is specifically designed to store a mag.

it's a pocket. and the rule book states, REAR pocket, not side pocket, not front pocket but REAR. The "speifically designed" thing you are talking about pertains to "retention devices" are tactical pants/shorts considered "retention devices'?

Man, he absolutely ripped the stage, too, after his recovery.

Is Bob Vogel shooting with a pistol light/weight on the rail? Can't tell from the vids.

putting on external weights are allowed in ipsc standard

oops. i just heard that bob voggel put a flashlight on his gun and per rulebook that is not allowed. weights are allowed not electronic devices

It's old news. He's been running it that way for a while.

The "light" has no internals in it. It has been decided that it is no longer a "light".

Did you see KC shoot the dirt, gong prone on 18?? Wonder what's up with that no call? 6.5 feet no call. He was safe...lol

Just saw the vid.

Eh, he was pretty much all the way down... gun was already pointing in the direction of the targets.

RO might not have been able to see the shot strike the ground, since it was on the other side of the wall.

Well looks like the ROs missed this one. He was behind him and the shot was on the other side of the wall like

6.5 is safe, I should have said 6.5 and he is safe.

I've just been tracking the Revolver teams, where it appears that the top competition is between USA, GERMANY, and BRAZIL. The country squads have posted results for 301 shots out of 501 for the match.


Because of the way the results are posted, you can't easily compare the results between shooters. The overall competitor results combine all divisions for all shooters, for all the stages that they have shot. The top result in any given stage is not likely to be a revolver shooter, so the match points are sort of meaningless. However, the relative placement of the 4 shooters in each of these teams should be close to what the revolver division has posted, and each shooter has an average Hit Factor after shooting the same 18 stages.


The individual shooter Average Hit Factor ranking, after these 18 stages. Please note that these hit factors are diluted by 0.0 values for the 12 stages not yet incorporated in the averages.


The order of these shooters is:


USA Lentz - 2.2106

GER Back - 2.1535

USA Olhasso - 2.0544

USA Walsh - 2.0539

BRA Polverini - 1.9684

USA Griffin - 1.9603

BRA Almeida - 1.8811

BRA Azevedo - 1.8449

GER Knaus - 1.7405

GER Kliner - 1.7324

BRA Carvalho - 1.3325


Team Average HF [top 3 shooters at this point]


USA 2.10630

BRA 1.89813

GER 1.87547


The German shooter Schneider is no longer listed in the overall Revolver results. It could be that he DQed during the third day of shooting.


Note that Average HF does not translate directly into relative rankings at this point, because the differences in stage point values and top HF for the Revolver shooters at each stage doesn't go into that calculation.


Still, things are looking good for Team USA, and Josh Lentz could well come out as Top Revolver for the match. His main competitors are AUT's Reiter [avg HF 2.0857] and ECU's Lopez [avg HF 2.3495]

all of the DQed shooters get moved to squad 87. he is one of them. in the "complete competitor listing" you can search by name or by squad.

End of subject, lets move on! Lol! Last day of competition! Ben trailing by 30 pts to Frenchie! Hope he shoots awesome today!

enough of the justifications! it's a violation in IPSC

Bonglee,

Please refer to Appendix E2 in the current IPSC rulebook. It very clearly demonstrates the hipbone and the requirement for placement of equipment. You may also notice the drawing includes a cargo pocket completely within the limits indicated by the appendix. If you look at the photo posted you will see it is in compliance with the indications of the Appendix. I do not know whether they are considering it a device designed to retain ammunition or a pocket that is to the rear of the front pockets, but we do know that the ROs who are at the match and witnessed the stage in person have approved him starting with ammunition in that location and did not assess a penalty. To say that it is a violation is unsubstantiated and inconsistent with the rulebook.
