Aristotle Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 This really should be stickied for future references, discussion. How cool would it be to have a sub forum with stickied rules discussion that's been hashed out so we don't have this convo every few weeks. (Not that this is a hot issue, but there are a few rules discussions that would be.) Thanks for your attention to this Mr. Ray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve J Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Aristotle, you're assuming people would actually look there first or even do a search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ima45dv8 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Sadly true. I'd like to think they would, if that resource were available. It would take a little time for people to get used to checking the 'stickies', but hopefully it would become the rule rather than the exception.

RobMoore Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 cleats aren't allowed, but off road running shoes are just as aggressive and you don't slip on wet boards with them. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1973 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 For me, "therein lies the rub"...."the spirit of IDPA" vs. the "letter of the law" in IDPA. Is it perfectly legal to do that according to the letter of the law in IDPA rulebook? Well, I don't see where it is prohibited, per se, explicitly.Does it violate the "spirit of IDPA"? Yeah, I think it does. I think somewhere in the IDPA rulebook, it does say something along the lines of "no competition only equipment". "Excuse, Mr. Mugger Bad Guy Thug, give me just a second... I have to put on my Pro Grip lotion before I can draw my pistola and shoot you." Pardon the sarcasm... but also somewhere in the rule book the phrase "represent real world encounters" can be found. You all can wear your Pro-grip if you all will let me wear my Nike Landsharks... does that sound like a deal? It could be called a safety issue. BK I see it as a safety issue especially down here in the South due to perspiration. Alot of people get sweaty hands when they get nervous awaiting their turn. In real world encounters I would say you usually do not have time to get sweaty hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
