Looking at a better way to do "production/factory"
Factory Division rifles must not exceed a caliber of .30 cal or a velocity of 3,200 fps.
A Factory Division Rifle is a non-custom, stock rifle, manufactured/assembled by a single manufacturer, in a configuration as available from that manufacturer, where the action, chassis/stock and trigger must be manufactured by, or be proprietary to that manufacturer.
Proprietary for the ease of definition would be a part made for that company with the companies trade marked name. IE could be a part made by company X (chassis) for Company Ys Rifle but has to have company Y logo on the part as an identifiable feature
1.5lbs minimum Trigger Pull Weight.
Magazine may not contain more than 10 rounds at the start signal.
Allowed modifications:
The barrel may be replaced, as long as the replacement barrel is the same profile, caliber and length as available from the manufacturer.
The barrel may be re-crowned and / or threaded.
The action may be bedded to the chassis or stock.
A suppressor or muzzle brake may be fitted.
Minor detailing is permitted by hand, including:
Removal of factory burrs,
Polishing,
Painting,
Adding of grip or protective tape.
Prohibited Modifications:
No permanent alterations may be made to the rifle.
No permanent aftermarket parts may be added to, or swapped on, the rifle. (Permanent = anything that takes a tool to add or remove. A weight kit would be an example of this) Sling swivel would not because it is a potential safety feature in order to carry the rifle
No further gunsmith modifications or truing are permitted.
