Clothing restrictions....

Post by OnaginOffagin »

Switching to lever action... is a Hardscrabble vest legal or not for lever action?

Glancing at the rules, I don't see any particular clothing restrictions for lever action. Everyone in my club and everyone at the regional matches I've seen are wearing vests. I'm the exception. I wear a t-shirt or sweatshirt so that no one confuses me with someone who knows what they're doing. :ymcowboy:

Ahahaha! Well, since I already own one of the things, I'll wear it until I am told not to .... anybody who sees me shoot now in my 81st year will realize immediately that I no longer know what I'm doing!

Same clothing rules as SB and HP now. Still have to clear the pipe rule.

Most shooters wear shotgun type vests.

NRA Rule 3.12(a) states: ...vest..are permitted if they can be closed over a gauge made from 4 inch thin wall PVC pipe not less than 30 inches in length, passed through the entire length of the vest, and opened or vented from the bottom edge to a point two inches above the crest of the hipbone.
