Thoughts on new IPSC Optics Div

[cptseawolf]

I'm stoked for this.

Basically limited optics from USPSA.

2011s, long boy Glock 34s. It's nice to be able to add some tricked out parts and not land in open.

Just waiting for IPSC Canada to vote on this, then my slide is off to get milled for a reddot.

Sean president of IPSC Canada did vote on it. It has passed at the AGM in South Africa for IPSC world. It will be in the new rulebook.

Sorry, I asked Sean if it was going to be a recognized class at the 2026 Nationals here in Prince George. This was his reply, "The IPSC Canada board will determine if Optics will be recognized at next year’s nationals in the spring of 2026 based on initial participation levels." I assumed this ment recognized as a class in general across Canada.

It’s already an active division for matches in Ontario.

Too bad can’t shoot major.

Major may look attractive for higher-scoring charlies and deltas, but you really need to be getting alphas and they score the same. And the greater magazine capacity for less frequent reloads, and reduced recoil, makes minor the better option.

1911 with a rail. Can I use a rail mount for an optic as opposed to slide modification?

It's great for the sport. None of the silly restrictions of production, none of the silly impracticalities of open, no more artificially propping up dead calibers to make major. It's affordable, relevant and easy to enforce. Do whatever you want so long as it's got a slide ride dot and no goofy barrel weights. The only criticism I have is that if you run a weaponlight, you have to take the batteries out or disable it. That should change.
