mac266 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Do we know yet if Single Stack will be made a permanent division? I'm sorry for my ignorance, I let my USPSA membership lapse and haven't shot in a few years (until TODAY!!!). When I last shot, there was no such beast but I shot the division today. I'd like to make it my permanent division, but not if it's going away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckS Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 mac266, You may already know this but any classifiers you shoot before 1 Jan 08 will count! They just won't be processed until next year. Later, Chuck PS: Welcome Back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickpony Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) Is there anywhere besides USPSA that I can find the rules for single stack division? Maybe it's spelled out somewhere on these forums but I can't locate them. I seemed to be banned from the USPSA website in Canada I'm planning to build a new 1911 and want to be sure what I do fits the rules... Thanks!
