I am considering the installation of an accessory rail to be used in conjunction with a flat, non-contoured, riser block on the forend of my handgun for UAS Freestyle competition. My interpretation of the rules indicates this configuration would be IHMSA-compliant.
Are there any supporting, or differing, opinions out there?

Re: Accessory Rail w/ Riser Block
a picture would help. But since it is an unlimited gun, you have a lot of leeway. as long as you meet weight and length limits and cannot be used as artificial support, it should be fine.
most restrictions are on production guns.

Re: Accessory Rail w/ Riser Block
ok, I think I have figured out this is for an exemplar.
it should be fine. if this was for a centerfire gun, that riser may tear you up.
but, it should meet the rules. I hope the flop shooters chime in as they can give you more reccomendations.

I see no problem,l would suggest adding weight to the stock,that’s one of the problems with the Anschutz they’re very light.nutcase wrote: Sat Nov 30, 2019 2:31 pm ok, I think I have figured out this is for an exemplar.
