Hi All,
I want to begin shooting IDPA matches in the stock service revolver class. I am buying a Ruger GP-100, and among other things, the gunsmith wants to do the following:
Is this legal for IDPA? I want to make sure I don't make a big investment and end up with a revolver I can't use!!
Thanks for your input,

I want to begin shooting IDPA matches in the stock service revolver class. I am buying a Ruger GP-100, and among other things, the gunsmith wants to do the following:
The finish ream and hone chamber is not a performance advantage, i.e. like porting etc, but merely allows the revolver to be loaded and unloaded easily and without the possibility of service accumulated crud to jam cartridges in the cylinder. Same goes for throating the barrel. It merely reduces the incidence of spitting lead and ensures good function. there is a slight accuracy enhancement when throating a barrel, however I throat to the same angle as Ruger and only if it needs it.
