Rifter Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Hello All, I have a home built AR-15. (Rock River upper and DPMS lower). Reading the rules, it looks like that it can only be considered for the Open class, in USPSA, is this correct? Thanks for your answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 That would make it a DPMS rifle. As long as it doesn't have too big a comp or too many optics or a bipod, it's good for Limited or Tactical. I know there's some grey area in the rules but it has never been an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 How about an actual home built lower? There would be no competitive advantage in Limited division so could it still compete w/o being bumped to open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry White Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 My AR is RRA,DPMS, JP, Douglas and Benny Hill and who knows what else. I shoot tactical. Makes no diffrence who manufactured the parts or who put them together, if it fits the division, thats where it belongs.----Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
