It's difficult to be deinite without a picture, and even then it's hard.

In general terms, if the curve is front to back then it's OK. If it's side to side then it isn't.

Now that you've added the photos (or maybe they were just slow in downloading initially) the answer is easy.

NO, not legal for ISSF air pistol.

i agree, but after shooting for 5 yrs i think the palm shelf would only help for a few matches then the novelty wears off
