Limited. Production is also 10 rounds per mag max and would likely require a mag or 2 more than your duty rig carries currently.

as stated, Limited you can put anywhere.
Production is behind your hipbone. I shoot with a LOT of LEO and they wear their duty belt, cuffs, baton, light, AR mag, the whole nine yards. |

Thx for the help ya'll. What about weapons mounted lights on your pistol? Would this put you in open? Weapons mounted light and mags up front to be clear.

Im not 100% sure, but It may have something to do with "LEO" on registration. Im too lazy to look it up.

In IDPA you are given considerations if you run your duty gear. I know the mag location would be GTG. I think the light would as well.

my understanding is that LEO is granted exception to the usual rules if they wear full duty belt. I think that's true in both sports, IDPA and USPSA.

@txice
Here's the governing USPSA rule. 5.2.8 Competitors deemed by the Match Director to be full-time law enforcementofficers with arrest powers or military personnel on current active duty orders, may be entitled to use their duty holsters or similar holster and related equipment when such equipment does not strictly satisfy the equipment or other requirements of the declared Division. The Range Master will remain the final authority in respect of the safety and suitability of using such equipment at USPSA matches. The use of such equipment, except as otherwise permitted in the rules, is restricted to Level I matches only. |

IPSC has the same rule. (without the Level 1 restriction)
Weirdly, the same rule number..... 5.2.8 Competitors deemed by the Match Director to be active law enforcement officers or military personnel may be entitled to use their duty holster and allied equipment. However, the Range Master will remain the final authority in respect of the safety and suitability of using such equipment at IPSC matches. |

Also look into the NRA TPC, Tactical Police Competition shoots as well. They only come around once a year unless you want to travel, but the scenarios and rules are geared more towards competing with duty gear.
Every time I have shot IDPA or other competitions with duty gear, they basically have allowed me to shoot, but haven't scored me with others. So I accomplished my objective of getting training and trigger time, but not necessarily "scoring" or competing. You are in for a world of fun, and an eye-opening experience about rules. |

Quoted:
I'm looking into getting competitive shooting and just starting to do my research. Im also a LEO and would like to run my duty gear, which consists of a battle belt and the mags up front at my appendix. Im really not concerned about "competing" for score/time. I just would like to get more trigger time and sharpen my skills. I plan to run my duty weapon, with no mods. I assume this would be the production division. I see IDPA and USPSA have rules with running your mags on your side. Is this correct? Is there a division or competition that allows mags to be placed at the appendix? Thx in advance.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I believe that in the name of realism, IDPA requires a LEO to carry a cup of coffee or a doughnut in his non shooting hand and points are deducted if either is dropped.

IDPA has a similar rule.
8.7 Duty Gear ExemptionThis duty gear exemption is for patrol type gear worn by uniformed personnel, not undercover, plainclothes, or investigative type gear. Police and military personnel are allowed to use their duty rigs as follows: A. The duty holster must be a strong side belt or thigh holster with at least one retention feature. B. All retention features of the holster must be used. C. All belt equipment holders must be present, though the shooter may decide which belt equipment is present. Police and military personnel using the duty gear exemption are exempt from: a. Using concealment garment b. Holster design and placement requirements (other than listed above) c. Ammunition carrier design and placement requirements d. Belt design and placement requirements The duty gear exemption is available for Tier 1 matches only. |
