WaJim Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I'm a new RO. January 2019 Where in the rule book does it state that a Single Stack competitor will be bumped to Open if he pulls a mag from the front pocket or has too many rounds in his second magazine? I've gone through the rule book more than three times tonight and still cant find the "Rule" Or is it an unwritten rule that he no longer fits criteria for Single Stack?

ChuckS Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 6.2.5.1 However, if a competitor fails to satisfy the equipment or other requirements of a declared handgun Division during a course of fire, the competitor will be placed in Open Division, if available, otherwise the competitor will shoot the match for no score. If a competitor fails to satisfy the equipment or other requirements for PCC or Open Division during the course of fire, he will shoot for no score.

WaJim Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Thanks Chuck. Btw the Competitor was me. I was wanting one more round in a stage tonight. Couldn't find the rule. Was torn between thinking it was a procedural or a bump . If it was just a procedural ...I was trying to figure if the 10 point deduction was worth the one round. In the end ...I didn't load the round...I did the mag swap. But I like to know where these rules are. Especially when I need them. Thank You again.

Poppa Bear Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 If it is a loaded start then you can have 9 in a 45 or 40, and 11 in a 9mm. This is because after you load the gun you will have 8 or 10 in the magazine. If it is an unloaded start you can only have 8 or 10. Most people load off a barney mag to start with and load all magazines to either 8 or 10 so they do not have to worry about firing one to many shots and getting bumped. ie, load off a barney and then load a 9 or 11 round magazine which gives them one to many rounds in the magazine after the start signal. The rule you are probably looking for is in the Appendix. This is where the division specific conditions are listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickBlasta Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Haven't I taught you anything? You should have arbitrated based on the stage being illegal and had it thrown out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only had 4 smallish stages and 1hr 15 minutes of light. I was trying to make do, and still try and game the stage without the last 1 rd mag swap. I knew the rule....but couldn't for the life of me find it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is learning though, I don't think he'll make the same mistake again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
