I wouldn’t have known that, either!

Where I worked, AMS meant “altered mental status.”

considering the number of years I shot cross sticks that could apply. Got to be something wrong when you enjoy shooting a 50 & 5X's and all you get is a good smoke award. I really miss that I can't compete anymore.
 
5040–ANY METALLIC SIGHT (AMS) FRONT AMS front sights
may be any front sight with or without shades, or globe
peep sights, at the shooter’s option. A colored filter
without magnification, may be attached.
5050–ANY METALLIC SIGHT (AMS) REAR Any sight, open, or
peep, including tube sights, not containing a system of
lenses. A colored filter, without magnification, may be
attached
 
I'm glad to hear of a match that allows a rear peep sight. When I moved to eastern Oregon many shooters used them and encouraged me to do so. Therefore, when I built my underhammer I installed a Lyman adjustable peep. When I moved to western Oregon I could find only one club that wasn't hard core on "fixed open iron sights only". Since that type of sight is just a blur to me, it really limits where I can shoot in competition. I'm toying with getting a trade gun since they don't have a rear sight at all. Then I'd be at an equal disadvantage with other shooters.
