J.S. Sooner, SASS #73526 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Voting results that I heard are: 1) Yes 2) No 3) Yes 4) Yes 1)If the lever closes on a long gun after it is set down open, shouldthere be a "no call" if it is, in fact empty, or a penalty if a spentcase or round is ejected? If the gun closes, the shooter will be theONLY one to touch the gun until it is shown clear or otherwise. 2) Should the MSV penalty for retrieving a dropped or ejected round be removed if it can be done safely? i.e.: 24. Ammunition droppedby a shooter in the course of loading or reloading any firearm during astage or "ejected" from any firearm may beSAFELY recovered or replaced from the shooter's person or other area asrequired by stage description. If the round is not fired it is countedas a missed shot. SHB p.23 / RO1 p.19 3) Recently, the issue of modifying rifle triggersfrom a curved profile to a straight profile has been discussed. Thismodification sets the trigger closer to the lever so it is less likelyto wound the shooter's trigger finger. The RO Committee has determinedthat this modification is an illegal modification according to the SASSFirearms Covenants, but requires a rule change to allow it. The RO Committee is lookinginto setting limits on how much re-profiling can be done. Furtherdiscussion ensued about modifying triggers for guns other than leveraction rifles, and a suggestion was made for ONLY allowing re-profilingtriggers on lever action rifles. Enforcement of this particular rule will be at the discretion of each match director until such time as it comes before the TGs for a vote 4) Should the Bisley hammer/grip frame restrictions from the SHB "Firearms Covenants" be removed?

Key Hay Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 So let me get this right: If the lever closes without anything in the action No Call. Can't pick up Ammo. Straight rifle triggers are OK (to some point). Bisley hammers are OK now on non Bisley pistols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Pizza mandatory for Friday nights? Could Monday Night Football be substituted? Trying to avoid a "P", even though a "Miss" of a Pizza cannot lead to a "P". Is that correct?

Grizzly Dave Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 One correction or update for PWBs list... Brunch, for us persons of shorter stature known as hobbits, is called second breakfast if indeed breakfast was also eaten. My hats off to TGs and ROC members who have dedicated so much time and energy to this sport. I don't know that you could pay me enough money to sit thru some of those meetings if they are anything like I imagine they are. Grizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creeker, SASS #43022 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 1)If the lever closes on a long gun after it is set down open, shouldthere be a "no call" if it is, in fact empty, or a penalty if a spentcase or round is ejected? If the gun closes, the shooter will be theONLY one to touch the gun until it is shown clear or otherwise. I was really hoping to see the wording on this one corrected before it was voted on. The proper phrasing should have been "Action" not lever. There are a number of long guns used in our game that "may" close when set down - only a certain % of them have levers. By using the term "Lever" instead of action - they have now created two different rules. An 1887 shotgun now has a different rules criteria than a SxS or 97. A 73/ 92/ 94 now has different rules than a Lightning. Before I am told to "Just use common sense" - Words have specific meaning and to use "Lever" instead of "Action" has opened up a double standard of rules application for the same "infraction" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have set an empty shotgun down before and it closed. I am glad this agenda item passed so to maybe help TOs in their efforts to do their job as efficient as possible. As I read the minutes I believe helpingTO was definetely entered into the discussion, which probably helped the vote. Ya know it takes 2/3 to carry. That's why the dropped round did not carry, not 2/3s. 2/3s can be tough when less than half the clubs are represented by attendance or proxy. IMO, there is no reason why club should not at least have a proxy unless they just flat do not care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, there is no reason why club should not at least have a proxy unless they just flat do not care. Billy I believe what he is addressing is the fact that the rule change specifies "Levers", not actions. There is no lever on a pump shotgun, or a pump rifle, or a SxS SG, or most single shot SG's. The new rule will cover Lever action rifles only. This also flies in the face of the clarification that has been made that it is the condition of the action or bolt that determines whether a long gun is open or closed, not the position of the lever.

Seven Mile Tom Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I thought the wording of No.1 was to be action and not lever so that it included all long guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckaroo #13080 Regulator Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 The lever must be opened as usual, however, if it closes in the process of restaging it, it is a no call providing that the gun is indeed empty. If it is not the normal penalties would be applied. It is also noted that a closed gun must be cleared by the actual shooter, not a posse worker. So, it stays put until the shooter is clearing the stage. Action is to be opend while still in the firing line. Dinner is sometime after lunch. Actual posting time was shortly after lunch instead. Now play with that one Roo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Voting results that I heard are: ... 4) Yes 4) Should the Bisley hammer/grip frame restrictions from the SHB "Firearms Covenants" be removed? Well... we've certainly come a long, long way from "no external modificatons... And I'm no longer sure it's in the direction the founders foresaw. I suspect we should just drop the pretext... and declare an "open" category to allow pro sponsorship for those that wish such... and all that it entails. I KNOW I'm certainly in the minority... but the whole game has changed... And while I don't like some of the things in WB... I applaud the current hold rules. Go ahead... take your best shot.
