I have a 45 ACP 1911 that I’d like to shoot in USPSA. I don’t really care (right now) on whether I shoot major or minor (I reload).
I do not want to shoot in Open Division, and my read on Production division is that “Handguns with external hammers must be fully decocked at the start signal.”, which means I cannot be cocked and locked. I assume that they will not let me put the hammer down with a round in the chamber in a Series 70 1911. My gun is a single stack, and Limited Division has no restriction on magazine capacity, so I’d be competing with the Para double stacks in 45, something I’d rather not do.
So that leaves Single Stack and Limited 10. I’d like to compete in the division that has the most competitors, and I believe that to be Limited-10 in my neck of the woods. Single stack doesn’t seem to have a lot of competitors.
I am right or wrong on the above?
