nuidad Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Other than when under the direction of an RO, can a PCC be transported anywhere at a USPSA Match without a safety flag ? What if it's in a case or sleeve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if it's in a case or sleeve? CZ is right... and I’ll add... rule 5.2.1.4 says if found without an RO will take you to a safe area and take appropriate corrective action...

rowdyb Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 just always leave the flag in it, even in the bag. or in your car to and from the match. not shooting? then flag in. done. heck, i bet if i opened the safe i have two guns in the safe with flags in them hahaha. just grab and go for the match.

StealthyBlagga Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 The answers above are correct. Not a DQ if caught without one, just the inconvenience of being frog-marched to the Safety Area. The flag rules may seen excessive to some, but they were presumably necessary as a concession to the "OMG-rifle-in-a-pistol-match" crowd. The greatest resistance I have seen has actually been from 3-gunners who are used to handling long guns without flags... it took a long time for the griping to subside after we implemented them in our multigun matches.

Agreed, but flags are a relatively new phenomenon for many events and old-timers hate change. They are getting used to it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
