As Gryff stated, make sure your gear is legal! That your gun fits inside the box!!! LOL! (inside joke between me and Gryff)

Just for that, if you get a master bump at the nationals in SSP, I WILL rat you out as you will instantly become an expert in CDP under the new rule book. Just to be safe, sand bag the nationals...

Question for those that have read the new rule book. If you run dry while out in the open and initiate a reload (but cannot shoot again until behind cover) can you let the EMPTY mag drop to the ground on your way to cover and leave it? I know if you tactical reload (behind cover) you have to retain the mag but the slide lock reload does not say so. It would seem 3.7-3.12 would have covered it. So retention is ONLY when the mag still has ammo or one is in the chamber yes?

Gryff and RoundEye thank you very much for your take on the rules. I want to make sure I understand everything as the new rules go into effect for the state event, as well as maintain clarity between USPSA and IDPA.

True but I have chrono'ed my stuff and it SHOULD be way good. Probably through some other stuff in the car just in case though.

Then again, I am shooting SSR. As long as my bullets are moving slightly faster than a stiff wind, I'm legal!

Mental note, extra scrutiny on Gryff's ammo. Oh I forgot to mention I'm one of the guys running the chrono.

105 power factor for SSR...I can throw the bullet fast enough to make power.

If the dent leaves a grease ring, then the benefit of the doubt goes to the shooter!

I was running a shooter at a match 2 weeks ago that had a bullet bounce off the cardboard. It was a 40 S&W that he loaded into his 45 ACP 1911. The unfired cartridge that was in front of said bullet did go through the cardboard, although it was sideways when it went through. Sounded funny when he fired, so he got the loudest STOP he had ever heard. They heard it next door. Turns out he had grabbed some of my ammo off the bench in error. Glad he did not blow up his gun.

In additon, there will be a strict equip check and chrono is mandatory per the NRB. |

I actually have a newborn. I should snap some photos of me hauling her around with that strap. Better yet, I might just shoot the whole match with her strapped to my side!
Actually, Taft IDPA is doing Fabulous Ferrous Fracas this month, but I think in October I might make a stage where you have to haul a baby carrier around on a strap. Why not? I was thinking of getting a button made of it and wear it on my vest. I still might. Now don't forget, we are just having fun here. I agree with the FTDR call and am in no way disparaging the Winton match. However, you have to admit it was about as fun and legit as a FTDR as you can get. I honestly am glad I got it. I had a great and fun match and the FTDR was part of it. I however, won't be doing it again. I learned my lesson.

That's up to the match staff, but the new rules say that the database on the HQ website is the only official record of classification (as of Oct. 1st). Most matches will accept a printout of your classification page as your proof, but you should email the match staff directly.

I received a response from IDPA HQ, and they updated my record in their DB. I emailed them a copy of my signed classification/membership card, and a copy of my scoresheet from my most recent classifier.
They did not say if this was required or not, but it seemed like it was done just to prevent any issues. |

So what happens if your ammo doesn't make chrono? Can you use different ammo and re-chrono?
