Magwell on 1911

Are magwells allowed in cmp matches ?

They are not listed as a legal modification.

Thank You.  Is there a straight forward list of 1911 modifications that are  allowed in CMP NMC ?

Yes, they are allowed if original equipment. That is not just an opinion. Rob got a letter back from CMP verifying that statement.

Thank You.   Original equipment how? I have a SA Custom pistol from the 90's.  Have no idea if they build it that way or not.

Now I get to opine. In my opinion if one is legal they are all legal. Could you imagine having your pistol inspected and having it rejected for a magwell and the person behind you gets his approved? Because the original cost more? Also could you imagine the BS involved in verifying that a model did or did not come with a certain mainspring housing? No. Once that genie was out of the bottle magwells became a non issue. That is my opinion of course.

I knew there as a thread out there, when I first opined on this question, that if it came from the factory that way, it was okay, but I could not find it using the search engine.

As a match director, my main concern is that the pistol is safe and that the trigger makes weight.  As I have stated before, the CMP went overboard on what pistols are legal for the Service Pistol EIC match.  Since the rule change, I still get a majority shooting either a 1911 or an M92.  If they had just relaxed the rule on what was legal with the 1911, it would have made things easier for match directors and the competitors, as well.

Trigger must brake 4lb every time too?
