Question to Pistol Competition experts

[earthshine402]

Yeah. I really don't want to tear it apart or off to shoot. I just want a way to shoot like if I just walked in concealed carrying off of the street.

Open division it is then.

He will be the same class no matter what division he shoots

Gamers gonna game!

Not necessarily... Vogel now runs a light on a Glock 24 in Limited division, but it is non-functional, and he puts a weight in there for recoil control.

edit: although the equipment rule for Limited states: "Installed Flashlight permitted: no" - I believe if you render the flashlight inoperable (remove the battery or light), as Vogel does, you should be OK in Limited.

Here's the source of the glocklight that's not a light being legal:

Uspsa will change Division/equipment rules if more than one person wants something. We will be the most inclusive shooting sport out there and I am looking forward to to the day we hand out participation awards....oh wait, we already do

Ha. I'm going to be the coolest D class open division shooter. Any recommendations on tactical flip flops?

You will be U class, you will have to carry the D class open guys range bag. You will get laughed at for wearing tactical flip flops, you will want those 5 finger slippers to look cool

Got it. U class. Bag boy. Five finger flops. Good thing 10 years of marriage and 4 kids have destroyed any semblance of pride I had.

I thought I remembered seeing a youtube of a guy that appendix carries in USPA. Can't tell 100% cause I don't want to stare at his "junk". Definitely no light though. Thought the op might find it interesting.

That guy goes by OrigamiAK on a bunch of forums. Check out this copy of his post from TPI about his experiences shooting from AIWB in USPSA: http://rationalgun.blogspot.com/2014/03/uspsa-as-competitive-environment-for.html

Come on down to Foxborough Saturday morning. http://www.independentsportsmensclub.com/page23.php

They run monthly "Action Pistol" matches. They use USPSA rules/targets/procedures for the most part but are not USPSA affiliated yet. They put on great matches and as long as you are safe with your stuff, no one will have any issues with you shooting the match with your carry equipment in the way you wish.

From the MD:
