Title: WFTF Equipment Rules
Post by: fbiergiel on November 01, 2018, 06:24:11 PM
Can someone explain to me why most every WFTF shooter I see at local matches have some sort of adjustable riser, hamster, or rest attached to the fore end of their rifle, when the AAFTA rules state under the Equipment section for WFTF rules, that Thigh Rests are not allowed.  What is the definition of a Thigh Rest versus all these risers I see at the matches?
