Looks like Single Stack is dead, now we have a proposed "classic division". My bet is the proposal will be so full of fail it will die. Maybe that was the plan from day one. Everything was allready laid out, just use the USPSA rules.
 
+1,..I was hoping they used the USPSA rules for SS.....and why not,.they work! The rules for Classic look decent.

Maybe that was the problem, IPSC always seems to want to distance itself from the USPSA. Not really sure why.

Where did you see the rules??

Doesn't the change to "Classic Division" simply reflect the intent to limit the division to 1911 genre pistols??

See appendix D5, page #76, 77.

I would say yes to your question. I don't see anything wrong in that or with the USPSA rules. What I don't want to see is a single stack standard division coming out of Global Village.

The vote

I thought the vote was not until the world shoot in Greece?
That is in October?

I know the mag capacity rule was a big issue for quite a few people.

If it goes through I am going to give it a try. It isn't that different from standard though.

I am more concerned with some of the other proposed rule changes.
 
don't see the point of limiting the size of the magwell if they are not going to limit the weight, size of the dustcover, or allow thumb rests
 
Classic division (Formally single stack). 1911 pistols should be close enough to the original 1911/1911A1 or the division with just end up being a twin of standard division. The only difference will be single stack. Why bother?
 
yup, had they just adopted the "over complicated" USPSA rules we would have that. But that would require saying that the USPSA had a good idea, and we all know that won't happen
 
I was talking the 8 rounds major and 10 rounds minor that USPSA uses. From what I understand IPSC is not limiting mag capacity for major. Gives 40 shooters extra round or two over 45.

If that happens then it would make no sense to shoot minor (9mm). Tripp Research has 10 round 40 S&W mags. I am going to purchase a 1911 but holding off until the rules are down on paper. I think the 8/10 rule will apply because in some parts of the world, civies cannot own anything over 9mm/38 cal.
