Changing the hook angle requires the removal of more metal than simply honing burrs. If you look up this subject on IPSC's Global Village forum, you will see that members of IROA (the officiating body) are, unfortunately, in full agreement.

That sucks. I really hate it when people are allowed to make a judgment call when there is *already* something in black and white.

Yet another reason why I am glad there isnt many IPSC matches in the USA.
 
Dont want to go off the post subject but, that thinking of Glock, XD, M&P autos being a double action still pushes the line in my book. A Sig 226, CZ75, Beretta 92 you can move the action from rest with the trigger.

I feel the true way to call it a double action would be strike the hammer twice on an empty chamber.
 
vetts, that is an interesting way of differentiating what's what in the DA world.

It would effectively eliminate from Production Div. all HGs that use the first part of the first trigger stroke to finish cocking their striker.

The next question would be figuring out what division the XDs, Glocks etc could compete in....
 
I feel the way they (XD, Glock, M&P auto) cock is the same way we cock all of our single actions but, with dont have a hammer to thumb only the slide to reset.

ESP or Limited.

Kind of brings that ESP heat back from the XD call in IDPA.
 
Hello All,

I have a good amount of experience with rifles and Shotguns but am new to pistols. IPSC and IDPA look like a whole lot of fun. The glock34 and CZ Shadow are the two guns I like and shoot best. I shot the SP-01 not the shadow but I can't imagine the Shadow being worse...

Anyway, will either gun keep me out of any type of competition? The Glock 34 looks like the trigger pull is a little light from the factory. The Shadow has the custom sights and the factory trigger job.
Thanks in advance for your help.
 
They are both USPSA legal.

The SP01 is close in IDPA SSP because of the weight.

The G34 is good to go in USPSA and IDPA SSP and ESP

Just go the web site for USPSA and IDPA and you will get the right info.

The rules do change.

You can have trigger work, sight work, some grip tape to be legal.
 
I just upgraded to a Glock 35 G4 (from a Ruger P89) to shoot production with, chose the 35 (.40) instead of the 34 (9mm) to be able to move up to Limited later on this year without having to buy another gun.

One thing I like about Glocks is the massive amount of aftermarket for them, and the prices for the parts are relatively cheap compared to other manufacturers.

One of the guys at the clubs here shoots a modded SP-01 in Limited, so that would also be a great IPSC gun if you decided to move up later.
