Happy Jack, Thank you for the analysis and prompt feedback. It is duly noted. Regards, Ozark Shark

Had a cowboy with a "new to him" 1911 that failed the weight check. We found a tungsten guide rod in it when he disassembled it. It was news to him.

The current rules read "Empty magazines must weigh no more than three ounces." I would like a clarification that magazine weight was not changed when base pads were legalized. I have reviewed the records from several years of state WB matches and found the average weight was just over 2.5 ounces with a couple of heavy outliers at 2.7 ounces. A glued-on pad should not make the the average magazine over weight, but a screwed on pad on one of the heavy outliers could push it over the 3 ounce limit. Thanks! Ozark Shark
