Merlin Orr Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Yep - sure will. May even buy a round gun and shoot there too. If they come up with anything else I will probably do it as well. I am a GUN WHORE... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhunter Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 No, I would not. But, I think there should be a Single Stack division, and for 2 reasons. 1) It is the root of the sport 2) Look at all of the potential new shooters it could bring into the sport! Besides, who wants to draw and have to go to double action, like production does now! On second thought, maybe SS would be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRe Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Well, as a guy who's trying to figure out how to come back into the sport, I considered L10 for a bit - until all this talk about Classic came about. I'm not touching either with a 10 foot polecat until all this hubbub quiets down. Would hate to dump $500 on mags and race leather only to have it rendered obsolete, either way.

I've heard that same comment by several local guys. I have a single stack that has only been out twice in the last year. I need more/better magazines, but don't know which ones to buy for the same reason. I also hope it is major/minor scoring so my .40 won't be useless.

zhunter Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Major / Minor would be a MUST I would think. Question? Is this just idle talk and internet conversation, or is the BOD seriously considering this SS idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeFoley Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 That would seem logical to me too, but some of the other threads talk about .45 only. I know the purists want that, but I think we should let everyone play that owns a singlestack. Definition of singlestack may be difficult too. I started this poll to see who would shoot it, not rehash the whole do we need it thing, and there I go inserting opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveZ Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Don't need it. Its redundant! We've already got a single stack division...its called Limited 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhunter Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Don't need it. Its redundant! We've already got a single stack division...its called Limited 10. OK, the can of worms is NOW officially OPEN! I think I am just gonna get a six pack and watch now, kind of like the boat ramp on a weekend. It's gonna be entertaining! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFoley Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 I considered poll only, but that is about as bad as censorship, and I wanted perspectives on why someone would or would not shoot it, plus poll only may not get the attention of some members. I would ask that we keep this more focused on the results than the other threads about SS division that focus on a lot of dialogue and banter.

Chuck D Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Any opportunity to punch holes in targets while running around like your hair is on fire sounds good to me....single stack, widebody or slingshot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFoley Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 Slingshot division!!! I like it!!! I suggested Grenade division on the other thread, but someone pointed out that they can be open or limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFoley Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 Question?Is this just idle talk and internet conversation, or is the BOD seriously considering this SS idea? I don't know any more than I have read here on the forum, but I wanted a way to see how many members would shoot this, and something tangible for the BOD to be able to measure instead of 40 pages of arguments.

Run n Gun Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Don't need it. Its redundant! We've already got a single stack division...its called Limited 10. That's so VERY true. Want to use 7 or 6 round mags? No problem. Want to use your carry holster? If its legal otherwise, no problem. I started in this game with a SS 45, I've NEVER used anything else nor have I shot anything but L-10 and I've NEVER felt I needed special protection! But hey, as long as you leave L-10 alone, go ahead with your IDPAish Division. Then from me? No problem. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singlestack Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 I would only if I can use 10rd mags. 8rd mags for USPSA is just stupid IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerT Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 As long as I can still use my race holster and mag pouches, then I would really like to shoot in a single stack only division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRe Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 .40 is major in USPSA in other divisions - I would expect it to remain major. Not in Production, it ain't I would shoot L10 as a way back into the game. I *might* shoot SS, but only as a "fun" thing. Eventually, I'll be shooting Open again, and maybe a fat Limited gun, too. In other terms - I might drive a Pro Stock car for some time, and might even drive my street car in bracket class every once in a while, but bring on the top fuel baby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerettaRacer Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Not a chance. If you won't let my Beretta's in I'll go play somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoonie Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Heck yeah I'd shoot it! I started with a Colt Gold Cup and loved shooting it. 10 round or 8 round doesn't matter to me. I prefer Mag pouchs at any position and race holsters but I can live with my Earnie Hill leather. Since I shoot a S_I in limited, I will not shoot a SS for L-10, the thin grip and small magwell just feels foreign! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Dunn Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 I'll shoot singlestack division, don't care about production/race holsters, don't care about mag capacity, don't care about major/minor scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
