Long Johns Wolf Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Howdy from Germany. We had this discussion yesterday. Can one start in the CC category with short stroked rifle and/or pistols given the correct caliber? If memory serves they were illegal a few years ago. But I don't know about the Status today. Thanks Long Johns Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye Miles #13621 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 They were never outlawed not here in the USA anyway! I shot Classic Cowboy for a few years and all my guns were short stroked and slicked up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger Sgt. Jake McCandless #3368 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 The 1866 in my avatar picture is a Codymatic that at the time of said picture was used for classic cowboy. Although it was digesting the classic powder,honest to God gun powder. Adios Sgt. Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a Canadian with a good sense of humor. I thought the restrictions on short-stroked rifles was only in the 'Hondo' category. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
