I have not heard of it happening. I would think that it would only come up in the Modern Class with a railed gun possibly not making weight. Quote

I’ve not DQd a shooter but I made them swap guns. Just like a very nice lady whose husband had given her a liteweight Kimber to shoot. She did not speak English and had no idea. Her husband was an a*^. If he had been shooting the gun, I would have DQd him. 2 Quote

Happy Jack Posted Tuesday at 06:15 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:15 PM (edited) YES I weighed guns at matches for years. I had a few go overweight and the shooter fixed them or changed guns. That was when we would weigh them before a match if asked. I remember after we went to weighing them during the match and they failed. Then the person could shoot the remaining stages if they wished but for no score for the match. Edited Tuesday at 06:16 PM by Happy Jack 2 1 Quote
