I also wonder what this means for ctc laser grips. As I understood it, these were legal with laser off or taped blackout, so long as the gun wasn't oversized or if the grips were not overweight. But this complicates that logic if one would argue that they provide any grip improvement. Not my argument, but this kind of logic trap is killing reasonable range of what folks actually carry. And at the end of the day this reduces the simulation value.
Someone please feel free to correct me if I am missing something in all of this? Or is it just one more step in returning idpa to a 1911 game, to rid the field of the upstarts?
