If you are going to shoot 9 Major you'll have to do it in Open. You can shoot 9 major in revolver as well, along with 357 sig as major in Limited and Limited 10.

I mean, I get that 9mm major is probably dangerous in other than a custom build and so might want to be discouraged in "lesser" divisions, but that's not true for 38 super major loads is it? It seems strange to force a 38 super to score minor in SS eg if it's using a major load. Sorry for noob question - my knowledge is extremely limited. Or put another way, why is a 38 super 1911, eg, shooting major loads artificially disadvantaged? If they allowed 9mm or 38 whatever to make major in limited everyone would do it for the mag capacity. It started out as a safety thing, people were blowing up guns pushing 38 super to the old major, and now they leave it like that so everyone doesn't need new guns. A change like that would make every 40 limited gun obsolete overnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example I have a Double Alpha "duty' belt and IDPA legal holster - can this combination be used? you can use any belt you want as long as the rig doesn't move when you draw or remove a magazine.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk Welcome and enjoy but yes, it's a short rulebook and in USPSA it matters because the RO's aren't reminding you every three steps what, where and how to shoot. They WILL, however, be happy to help if you let them know you're new. Be warned, though, it's addictive! Past that, it'll help avoid the "is my holster legal," "how far forward can I put it on my belt" and "can I put mags in my pockets" questions.

Grip modifications such as, but not limited to, undercutting/smoothing the trigger guard, adding or removing finger grooves, or adding stippling, grip tape, or checkering are specifically allowed, without reference to Appendix E4.

It says target, not competition. I doubt it is legal even for single stack due to size. There are other shooting disciplines bullseye, Bianchi cup etc., not to mention just plinking at "targets" at your local range. I'd say in this instance calling it a target pistol is a marketing label more than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pistol isn't legal in Production or Single Stack for USPSA matches. Fails box test in both. And, it is a SA pistol as best I can tell.

SingingShooter Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Sorry...my use of the word "production" in the context 1911/single stack USPSA division was a nube mistake. I appreciate all the feedback. Doesn't look like that'll be the Kimber I buy if planning to shoot single stack division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
