1.2.2 H question

Recommended Posts

In the middle of shooting a stage today, I noticed the loctite had failed and my Glock 34's front sight was loose and leaning.  It was the last stage, so I just shot through.

Had this not been the last stage, should I have been allowed to:

 

  1. switch to a backup gun that I'd brought (I had a G17 and a G19 with me) 
  2. just swap out the upper (slide and barrel) from my G17 onto my G34 frame

 

Legally, the frame on a Glock is "the firearm", so I think it could be argued that swapping uppers, it's still the same gun...but swapping uppers on a 34/17 does kind of change the "model" of gun.

 

Is a pistol with the front sight loose with the potential to fall off considered "unserviceable"?

What's a sight? Oh, you actually use those? B)

 

I think that's the match director's call? I wouldn't see that being a problem, to switch for a part coming off the gun.... if you didn't have a little Glock sight wrench with you to tighten it up.
But someone may argue that in the real world your sight might fall off, but the gun still works - so deal with it. Good opportunity to practice your index and point shooting. Right ? :ph34r:
