Alien Pistol for Production Division - IPSC
I find that the Alien pistol by Laugo Arms is listed under the IPSC Production Division List. My question is about the magwell as it came with the magwell on from the factory. Is one allowed to run the pistol with the magwell on? Because in the list for Sigs and Caniks the clause ( without the detachable magwell on ) is very specific that you can't run them with the detachable magwell on, but for the Alien pistol it is rather confusing because there is no clause that says ( without the detachable magwell on ). I did get bumped to open division on a recent qualifier due to the magwell and had to take if off to run Production Optics the second day as I run it with a retro slide kit where the optic reciprocates with the slide. Thanks in advance

Yes the rules allow color changes:
17.1 Modifications to them, other than minor detailing (the removal of burrs and/or adjustments unavoidably
required in order to fit replacement OFM parts or components), are prohibited. Other prohibited
modifications include those which facilitate faster reloading (e.g. racking or cocking handles, flared,
enlarged and/or add-on magwells, etc.), and/or adding stippling. Changing the original color and/or finish
of a handgun, and/or adding stripes or other embellishments is permitted
You CANNOT run the extended magwell:
