Stock III's

[Gdub]

So what can you shoot a Stock III in? Production, Limited,?

[works for ammo]

4 out of the 6 divisions. no in single stack and revo

I'm guessing its too heavy for anything in IDPA? Cool gun, regardless.

Makes a great production gun or limited gun...trigger kind sucks but it can be improved with some different parts,.

Definitely way too heavy for IDPA

I got mine to shoot .40 minor in production, was very soft. I ended up getting another Stock II 9mm so mine now is a backup limited gun with SA trigger, they're nice guns.

Is a stock II also too heavy for IDPA?

I believe the Stock II is not legal for IDPA due to the bull barrel. Here is the text from the current rulebook:

8.1.7. Non-IDPA-Legal Modifications for All Divisions

The following features and modifications are not allowed in any division unless otherwise specifically allowed in the rulebook.

8.1.7.3. Heavy and/or cone style barrels without a barrel bushing except as allowed in ESP and CDP divisions with length restrictions.

8.2.2 Enhanced Service Pistol Division (ESP)

8.2.2.2. ESP Permitted Features and Modifications (Inclusive list):

8.2.2.2.21. Heavy or cone style barrels on firearms with barrel lengths of 4.25” or less.

I think only the Limited Pro is ok for IDPA, or the Stock I. Something about the full dust cover but don't quote me, I don't shoot much IDPA but a friend uses their Limited Pro if I'm not mistaken

[BrazeauRacing]

Yep, the Limited Pro is good for IDPA. However, my Limited Pro wouldn't fit in the box without shortening the beaver tail of the frame, so I shoot it in ESP with a modified beaver tail, a modified magwell, single sided safety, and cocked-n-locked for the start condition.

This is correct however they do make Stock II's with a straight barrel. I had one in 9mm and it weighed 43.5 ozs. It is even more a unicorn than the bull barrel ones. I got rid of it when IDPA changed the rules and that was a stupid move on my part. If you can find a Stock II lower; you can add a LimPro or Stock I upper and it should be close on weight. Just a thought.
