Ok thanks

You should definitely check it out.

I was there today competing for the first time and it was a blast! The stages were all different, testing your skill on all the different facets of practical pistol shooting, the atmosphere was fantastic, not uptight but with all the seriousness that the sport requires.

Special thanks to dlmeadows for introducing me to everybody and patiently answering all my questions and letting me borrow some of his equipment.

I'm definitely going back.

I was in your squad as well, and I have to agree we had a good time. Most of the same guys will be there for IDPA 1st Saturday of December, come join us.

IDPA is less fun though LOL. I typically don't get to throw rocks when I shoot IDPA ;)

True, it's not AS fun and you have to be quiet, but you get to shoot stuff and hang out with interesting people so it's still pretty fun.

[dlmeadows]

Thats a fact

I don't know any of these people....................

What are the major differences between IDPA and USPSA?

[dlmeadows]

uspsa= no cover garment, no use of cover, reload whenever you want, mag doesnt have to be empty. different scoring system that nobody understands. shoot it any way you want to as long as you are in the designated shooting area

Theres a chance of winning a IDPA major matches but not in a major USPSA unless your a DM in IDPA and then still you probably wont

Truth.

IDPA matches pretty much dictate how a stage is to be shoot, there is zero creativity allowed; whereas in USPSA you can be creative and try to develop the best plan for you to shoot the stage.  I won't go into the goofy/subjective rules IDPA has regarding reloads and cover.

[Guest BigJ45]

USPSA scoring is simple. Whoever gets the most points per second wins.

"Major" IDPA matches are still pretty minor.

Cover and less rounds per stage in IDPA than in USPSA.
