Thus, the top shooter in Open on a stage is the measure for all other Open shooters, and likewise for all other Divisions. More information can be found in the IPSC Shotgun rulebook. There are 4 divisions currently recognized in IPSC Shotgun Competition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Open Division<\/strong> is the shotgun equivalent of top fuel dragsters. The guns have compensators, optical or electronic sights, and almost all now feature detachable box magazines. There is a ten round limit when loading magazines so a loaded chamber start means 11 rounds for box fed guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/usrifleshotgunchallenge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DAHG-012-1-1024x427-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/usrifleshotgunchallenge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DAHG-012-1-1024x427-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/usrifleshotgunchallenge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DAHG-012-1-1024x427-1-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/usrifleshotgunchallenge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/DAHG-012-1-1024x427-1-768x320.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Modified Division<\/strong> Modified guns can have almost all the same features as Open guns with the exception of detachable box magazines, meaning these guns are tube fed and do not have a load limit but there is an overall length restriction of 1320mm. Yes, you can run a comp on the barrel and use a red dot sight. USPSA does not use a box to measure the overall length while IPSC does so keep this in mind before traveling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/usrifleshotgunchallenge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/modif_sg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-619\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Standard Division<\/strong> guns are tube fed guns but unlike Modified, optical or electronic sights and compensators are not permitted.
