Rules changes from 1980 to now??

[Mustang Gregg]

Hello again:

It seems I'm asking a load of questions on here, but I've been away from IHMSA for 20+ years.
I did read the rule book in the top thread.
My question is about grips and replacement grips and exactly what is meant by "manufaturer".
Does it mean I can put Hogue or Pachmayr grips on my Rugers? Or only Ruger-built grips on my Rugers?

I apologize for the many questions. I want to get my equipment correct when I get back into IHMSA.

Much obliged,
Mustang Gregg

Gregg, You can Put Hogue or Pachmayer grips on your Ruger. There are even some one man shops that build grips and other things that can be used in production. The main thing is it must be cataloged for that particular gun with out extra fitting to make it work. I have a Jim Ishmael grip for my T.C. I use for standing. Unfortunately Mr Ishmael is not with us anymore. I use it in the production standing categories. If you have a particular question about a product contact Dell Taylor. He is the rules and evaluation director.
