I am considering porting the slide on my SIG P226 SAO. Since it is an SAO firearm, I am required to shoot Limited with this gun.
When I look at the USPSA rules, it claims no porting or compensators on Limited guns, but I always took that to mean *barrel* porting. It does mention no devices to control recoil, such as weights, which makes me think now that slide porting might be a no-no.
But, the STI DVC Limited has slide ports, and this gun was designed SPECIFICALLY for the Limited Division:
While I am at it...
I am considering an extended length barrel, which means it would extend slightly beyond the front of the slide. Does anyone know if this would be legal in the Limited Division.
Is there a way to ask these questions directly to USPSA? I am going to send an email to the Area 5 director. Is there a better way to ask this officially?
