THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Question about placing into the tactical class:

Most of the rules say you can't modify from original factory configuration to remain in tact class. However, what if we have a home brewed rifle? Mine doesn't have anything exotic. Just a Timney trigger, UBR stock, Troy 13" rail, Vortex 1-4x scope.

Also, I'm running a Springfield XD with a Powder River Precision match trigger; does that put me in open?

Thanks- I'm just getting my feet wet in 3 guns

That is still considered "factory configuration".....it doesn't mean you have to keep the gun stock....as long as your mods are within the rules for tac. division (like a comp no longer than 3" etc...) then your fine

General things that will put you in open:

Rifle:
More than 1 optic
A comp outside the regulation size (3" long 1" wide)

Pistol:
Compensator
Optic Sight

Shotgun:
Porting/comp
Loading more shells than allowed for division (8+1 for USPSA)
adding a loading device (speed loader to the loading port)

Your setup will put you in tactical optics.
