Thank you for explaining all this. I am a IPSC newbie but looking to go in IDPA also. You can only imagine my surprise when I found out that CZP10F is not IDPA legal! Lucky me I didn't buy that gun already.

Great video! Just a note, compensators are allow in IDPA in the latest division per appendix A.2.3.3… they just have to be screwed on, not pinned

Hey guys I know it’s an old video and maybe my question has been answered but can you run a milled for optic slide on a Glock for CO or it needs to be an MOS model? Also is stipling allowed in CO?

Hi there @vassilis331! Thank you for watching and subscribing! to answer your question, yes you can run a milled/modified slide cut for a CO of your choice. Just know that whatever cut you have done and optic chosen needs to fit in the IDPA box specific for CO and make the weight requirements. Also, Stipling is allowed in CO and ESP. hope this helps!!

Don't you think the IDPA regulations are a bit outdated with comparison to what is being produced nowadays? Regarding Stock Service Pistol Division (SSP) I have found that most of the brand new pistols: Sig Sauer P320 Legion (43.5 oz (1.2 kg)) , P320 X-Five DH3 (43.5 oz (1.2 kg)) or P226 are either too heavy or too wide. In addition some extra futures which are introduced by the manufactures to make our life better might not be allowed. I heard some people cut a bit their grip to let the gun fit into a box 😞

@PaulGee 9 ай бұрын

I agree with you. With an industry controlled by law, public opinion and economy, gun designs remain fluid. However, trying to write rules for IDPA for this sport maybe worse?

@inOZ8434 2 ай бұрын

I'm interested in trying idpa, but I don't really want to use an optic, for my carry either. My question is, do you need to have an optic or..?

Gave this video a like because it is very informative and presented very well. Coming from USPSA, IDPA seems to have way too many nonsensical rules that restrict the sport. 10+1 capacity in what is essentially the open division of IDPA? Hard pass. Again though, video was awesome, sport seems dumb.

CDP should be allowed to run optics.

@PaulGee Жыл бұрын

Mag capacity would definitely be an issue with only 8 rounds.

@pete-mz9vr Жыл бұрын

All divisions should be allowed optics. Regardless of mag capacity. The future of the shooting sports is optics.

@PaulGee Жыл бұрын

The optic division evolved from ESP, however enthusiasts such as yourself began experimenting with other divisions which are now evolving as well. But you will just need to follow the ESP requirements with your favorite gun, until a change may occur.

@pete-mz9vr Жыл бұрын

I do not see the logic allowing optics with single stack 9mm and not CDP? Again...all divisions should be allowed optics. There is no need for evolving.

@PaulGee Жыл бұрын

Single stack 9mm is capable of holding 10 rounds is why. To run an optic with a CDP gun is a great idea, but you will have to do it with an 8 round disadvantage. Therefore, I don’t see any reason why you couldn’t other than that? As for allowing a Specialty division in CDP, I’ll inquire with IDPA about their thoughts for you. Stand by.
