USPSA is gaming every division. Production class; making the original purpose of an affordable entry to competitive sport to a Race Production with new open rules. PCC with everything that can be mounted on carbine, now 1911. Just make it more expensive for the average shooter to keep up with the Jones. Think about it now, isn’t it always, “LESS IS MORE”. USPSA has $s on its mind. Following what manufactures want to sell. It is not going to make one a better performer, it is PRACTICE. Practice cost money too. Just my take on what is going on.
whats wrong with .45 acp is it no longer accepted as major?
40 should be backed down to minor power factor because of the super soft handloads competitors are running
Great job making this in 40 caliber. 9mm is minor power factor and will never win in the limited division.
Just saying 1911 was very disappointing NOT a single stack eligible 1911, would have been nicer and less missleading if stated double stack in headline.
Offer it in .357 Sig. for people that like shooting 9mm bullets.
Make it a 10mm and I will buy one.
In 40…really?!? Make it in 9mm and take advantage of softer shooting, quicker follow up, less expensive ammo.
