Dear Regional Directors,
Dear Athletes,
Dear Range Officers,
Dear Instructors and Trainers!

I would like to share some news from the recent IPSC Executive Council meeting:

1)    Due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, the transition period for the IPSC accounts from Sweden to Switzerland lasts longer than it had been expected. For that reason, Roland Dahlman was appointed as a Deputy Treasurer in accordance with the Section 7.2 of the IPSC Constitution.

2)    Adding to the Handgun Ready Condition the following: Options 1 (For handgun loaded), Option 2 (for handgun loaded, chamber empty), Option 3 (for handgun unloaded) to Handgun Rules was discussed in detail during the meeting. The proposal is aimed at consolidation of the Rules of all the disciplines and making it more convenient for the athletes. We have the result of the voting about this matter from April 2019. But the situation changed and we would like to open a final discussion about this issue. The questionnaire will be sent to the Regional Directors in a short while to check the opinion of the Regions. We would kindly ask Regional Directors to discuss it with NROI and athletes.

3)    There was also discussion about PCC minimal overall barrel length, overall firearm length and two PCC Divisions – iron sights and optics. The questionnaire about this issue will be distributed to get the opinion of the Regions. It is necessary to have minimal overall barrel length for safety reasons.

Stay safe! DVC!

Boletín del Presidente de IPSC – Octubre 2020

Estimados Directores Regionales, Deportistas, Oficiales de Campo e Instructores:

Me gustaría compartir algunas noticias de la reciente reunión del Consejo Ejecutivo de IPSC:

1) Debido a la situación de la pandemia de COVID-19, el período de transición de las cuentas IPSC de Suecia a Suiza ha tomado más de lo esperado. Por esa razón, Roland Dahlman fue nombrado Tesorero Adjunto de acuerdo con la Sección 7.2 de la Constitución de IPSC.

2) La adición a las Opciones de Condición de Handgun Lista 1, 2, 3 (Handgun Ready Condition Options 1,2,3) a las Reglas de Arma de Mano se discutió en detalle durante la reunión. Tenemos el resultado de la votación sobre este tema de Abril del 2019, pero la situación cambió y nos gustaría abrir una discusión final sobre este tema. El cuestionario se enviará a los Directores Regionales en breve para verificar la opinión de las Regiones. Le pedimos amablemente a los Directores Regionales que lo discutan con sus NROI y atletas.

3) También hubo una discusión sobre la longitud total mínima del cañón del PCC, la longitud total del arma de fuego y dos Divisiones del PCC: miras de hierro y ópticas. El cuestionario sobre este tema se distribuirá para conocer la opinión de las Regiones. Es necesario tener una longitud total mínima del cañón por razones de seguridad.

¡Mantenerse a salvo! DVC!

Presidente de IPSC
Vitaly Kryuchin
