Idiot Question

[Wild Bill1]

Who knew, me with a bone head question....

I have a 3rd Gen S&W 4506. I know they're wildly (sarcasm intended) popular. I neglect this platform quite a bit. I was wondering if it falls into the guidelines for singlestack? I see it's on the production list. It has 8 round mags I have 10 round mags for it. So long as the gun fits in the box with magazine and the mags themselves aren't more than the 140mm max it is legal in production with the 10 round mags, it is on the production list.

Should have cleared that up a bit.

1. Will it fall into singlestack. I'd like to get classified there.

2. In production, is it legal with the larger mags or, is this going to push me I to limited 10?

USPSA Appendix D5 last paragraph:

Only 1911 production type pistols!

You could use it in Limited Ten

The Browning High Power was designed different than the 1911 because of the 1911 patents that Browning sold to Colt.

I want sure about that, I've seen, in other states, folks ruining Sig p220s in single stack. I know it's s club level match but that's why I asked.

I've seen, in other states, folks ruining Sig p220s in single stack.

they would be breaking the equipment rules for SS division.

APPENDIX D5 â€"Single-Stack Division Cont.
Special conditions:
â€" Only 1911 production type pistols. Must be available to the general public and have their basis in the original 1911 service pistol as designed by John M. Browning. Pistols made from components that duplicate the factory originals are acceptable. Frames must be metal.

Bill, the S&W 4506 is not legal for SS. So in the beginning of time, John Moses Browning delivered the 11 commandments. The 11th being "Single Stacks are, will and shall always be only be a 1911. You shall not put other guns in front of the 1911, especially not false guns like Glocks" So it was said, and so it was written, and carried forth into time by Col. Cooper to modern times.

You are better off in L10 anyway.
DVC, but mostly C

Lmao love it guys, if it fits in the "box" and the mags don't exceed the max length in the box etc is it legal to run the 10 round magazines.
