Thomas Moore Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 kgunz11 was kind enough to ship "The Box" which measures your single stack with magazine. kgunz11 would like to make this a traveling box and have it delivered from shooter to shooter with the last person picking up the shipping. I was lucky enough to be the first one kgunz11 shipped it to and now it's my turn to "pay it forward". So...who would like to be next in line for "The Box"? BTW, it's made of wood and very well constructed. Just PM me your address and I'll ship it once I get back from Area 6 or I could bring it with me if you you're first and happen to be going to Area 6.

Chris Keen Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I know that was designed to be very close to the IDPA box, but how close is that to the IPSC box? I am wondering if my LTD gun is going to be legal for IPSC STANDARD division later this year and I dont know where to find an IPSC box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure mines OK, but it never hurts to double-check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am wondering if my LTD gun is going to be legal for IPSC STANDARD division later this year and I dont know where to find an IPSC box. If I'm not mistaken the IDPA box, which I have, is a touch short on length. So if it fits the IDPA box it will fit the USPSA box. I don't know if the IPSC box is the same or not though.

ChuckS Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Love the "Commie" referance Chuck. I got that from a PhD at the University of Wisconsin Linear Accelerator a long time ago. He had a plaque on his wall that said: "Fight the Metric System: We don't need no foreign rulers" Later, Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that but figured there is no way USPSA would publish a box size that went out to the 1/2 thousandths, therefore I figured what I was looking at was measured, not published???

Flexmoney Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I once looked up the dimensions in the rule book of choice...then used the corner of my bench and two pieces of tape to mask out the interior length and width of the box. (And, once you place your gun on the bench...you can use your calipers to check height.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that but figured there is no way USPSA would publish a box size that went out to the 1/2 thousandths, therefore I figured what I was looking at was measured, not published??? Nope, nothing was measured. IDPA and USPSA had fractional measurements and IPSC had metric. I just turned the fractional to decimal and did a cross matrix of metric <-> english. The 4 decimal places was due to the fact I think I had been calculating hit factors in excel before. 0.0005" doesn't mean much when you are squishing your Bomars to get the gun in the box... I am still confused on why you have to "get up" since all the published box dimensions are on line? Later, Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExtremeShot Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I am still confused on why you have to "get up" since all the published box dimensions are on line? ...get up to get my paper copy. I knew where the hard copy was and didn't want to spend the time to search. Yeah, I'm lazy...at least today I am. Thanks for the info. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
