PRACTICAL CARBINE
- Minimum caliber: 5.45x39
- Maximum caliber: .308/7.62x51
- Magazine load-to capacity: 30+1
- Magazines that are capable of holding more than 30 rounds (including drums) are allowed provided that they are only loaded to 30 rounds before the start of the stage
- Coupled magazines (side by side) are prohibited
- Magwells: aftermarket or add-on magwells are prohibited, however lower receivers that have built in flared magwells are allowed.
- Muzzle Devices:
- Suppressors allowed
- Muzzle brakes are prohibited UNLESS used for the purpose of adapting a suppressor, as long as the suppressor remains attached. A muzzle brake is defined as any muzzle device that features at least one set of externally visible braking baffles for which the uncompromising purpose is to reduce recoil force, NOT compensate for muzzle rise or act as a flash hider
- Muzzle brakes which are integrated into the end of a suppressor (like the SilencerCo Anchor Brake) are allowed.
- A blast mitigation device such as the Surefire Warden or Griffin Armament Blast Shield that remains attached to a muzzle brake is allowed
- Examples:
- The PWS PRC Compensator IS defined as a muzzle brake because the first ports closest to the barrel constitute a set of externally visible braking baffles. However, the similar PWS FSC Compensator is NOT defined as a muzzle brake because its baffle set is compromised in terms of recoil reduction in order to achieve its hybrid purpose.
- The Surefire Warcomp is NOT defined as a muzzle brake because it acts as a flash hider with muzzle rise compensating ports, not braking baffles to reduce recoil force.
- The KAC MAMS, Precision Armament EFAB and AFAB, and similar devices are NOT defined as muzzle brakes because their baffle sets do not have the uncompromised purpose of reducing recoil due to the pinhole-style gas port design.
- For any specific muzzle device questions, please send a link to the product or very clear pictures of the device to info@pcsleague.com
- No restriction on muzzle device size
- Bolt Carrier Groups: Lightened or Reduced Mass BCGs are prohibited. In an AR-15, total assembled BCG mass must be 11.0oz or heavier. In other platforms, the total assembled BCG mass must be at least the OEM BCG mass of the platform with a 0.2oz tolerance
- No bipods or bags
- Binary and Forced Reset (FRT-15) type triggers are prohibited
- Full Auto/Burst Fire triggers are allowed but may only be used in semi-auto mode. A full auto/burst trigger that lacks a semi-auto mode is prohibited
- No other restrictions
