Slow fire time limit will be reduced to 5 minutes for 10 rounds. Competitors will be allowed to use one or two hands as they desire. Timed and rapid fire will begin with the loaded pistol pointed down at a 45-degree angle, without touching the bench. There will be no alibi strings except for a range malfunction. The authorized pistol is intended to be an "out of the box" non-match conditioned firearm similar to your personal defense / home defense firearm. The Match Director will be the final authority on authorized pistols. Ammunition is any safe, non magnum, load for your particular firearm. Cost for the SAFM is $5.00 with 50% of the registration fees going to support FSSA's junior program, and the remaining 50% being divided among randomly selected competitors(s).
