I like the idea, especially because I've heard of people loading up carry optics frames with lead weight due to the lack of enforcement of the weight restrictions.

Is Carry Optics being replace by Production Optics? I have a new gun back-ordered, and.... a lot of it's value is based on it's 140mm mags.

Production optics is IPSC, which we do not participate in.
IPSC and USPSA are affiliated, but they are separate.
Carry optics is not going to be replaced in the US.

I would say that the weight issue is never going to be examined at level 1 matches.
At level 2 or 3 matches, it will be checked (pretty sure of that)
