My name is Kevin and my son is TJ. I have been shooting guns my entire life and have always wanted to try IDPA, but never had the time. Well I am taking the time now. My sone will be going into the Marines next year as a MP, this will start his process of becoming a US Marshall, DEA or FBI agent one day. I believe this is something we can do together and have a blast and also increase our defensive skills. I live in Mt Airy ( Mayberry RFD ) NC and will drive 1 hour + to each match but it...

Just jumped in here folks. I hope to learn some new & neat stuff. Just started shootin' IDPA this past March and instantly fell in love with the sport. I would say I'm hooked.

Did a whole lot of PPC shooting at our local club, actually 18 yrs. worth, but this is a whole new ballgame, not necessarily "better", but absolutely more entertaining. I've gotten the bug so bad, a buddy & I made...

Hello everyone, I've been shooting IDPA at my local range for about five weeks now and I love it. I recently shot my classifier in division CDP, so my current class is MM. I have a lot of improving to do but for a new IDPA shooter I'm fine with it for now. My EDC and IDPA firearm is my XD45. I feel like IDPA is really helping me become a better shooter and it's a lot of fun.

I am an avid IDPA shooter and competitor. I belong to a great IDPA club in Conroe, Texas: (TTS) Thunder Tactical Shooters. We hold weekly fun/practice matches every Wednesday evening at 6:30pm - 8:30pm. We also hold monthly matches every 2nd and 5th Saturday of the month. We have 30 - 50 shooters who regularly attend our weekly matches.

I am currently the club Range Manager and monthly match director. I mainly compete in SSP, ESP and sometimes CDP. I shoot Glock 34 and 17 model...

What's up guys and gals. I just found this forum and will be lurking around for a while. My name is Clint Duffy and I own Mountain Ridge Armament (www.mountainridgearms.com). I mostly shoot highpower and I am a Distingushed Highmaster. I have been shooting IDPA since April and I love it. Someone suggested we try it for our bi-weekly pistol league and I ran with it. Things went so well that I had the club join and we will be...

Glad to join

Glad to join this fine group. Got started in IDPA a little over a year ago and really, really enjoy it. Hope to find out more from experienced shooters!

Hi all
Just signed up with the forum. I signed up with IDPA last week and am looking forward to my very first match on November 28th at the PSC range in Friendswood.
No that's not right... I'm not just "looking forward" to the match... I'm excited as heck and can hardly wait!
I've been practicing around the house, reading everything I can (tips, tricks, this forum, etc.) and watching as many videos as I can find.
I've been shooting since I was...

Hi,

I am from SA and started shooting IDPA in 2005. I enjoy every moment on the range.
If you can win, be willing to loose.

Hiya! I'm Haji. I got back into IDPA this year after a layoff of...lemme see...a dozen years or so? Seems like a lifetime ago. My full time gig is as a sales dude for ATS Tactical Gear, across the street from Fort Campbell, KY. I'm not getting rich, but it's the most fun that can be had with the pants on. Talk about guns and gear to Soldiers from 101st Air Assault Division, 5th Special Forces Group, 160th SOAR, and get visits from guys like Tony Pryor, James Megallas, and Ernest...

Greetings IDPA forum members!

New guy from Canada here... Shot my first match in May of this year and my first sanctioned was Idaho State.

I think I'm hooked...

I decided to join to forums to get the scoop on upcoming matches and "meet" a fellow shooter online. And maybe pick up a few tips...

Cheers,

Hi all,
I have been shooting for years and was always interested in IDPA. But never really considered getting involved until I discovered a Rifle and Gun club in the local area that has IDPA matches. I have been lurking on these forums in an attempt to learn more. Looks like a great site to help me learn and understand more. I am looking forward to being a member here.

First match under our belt

feeds@yuku.com (zombiedad2469) — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 14:42:36 GMT

WOW!!
We had a great time in Clinton, NC today!! My 11 year old and I shot our first IDPA match today, and we are both eager to see our results. My son did AWESOME for a first timer, and especially for a first timer YOUTH shooter. He will be 12 in February, and that gives him 6 months to get his skills honed before he can join IDPA and then qualify. From what I saw today, he will be a VERY strong contender.

We will definitely be participating in every match we can!!

Hello

I just started shooting IDPA this year, the sport is a lot of fun. I have shot matches at clubs in DE, PA and FL and have not found a bad one yet.

Just shot my first IDPA match

I've been a bullseye shooter in the past and became interested in IDPA. Just shot my first match in Factoryville, PA and had a blast. Walt Jones and Mike Lahey were among many who guided me through the postal stages and made things very relaxing and enjoyable. I'm not at all interested in scoring at this point, but more focused on reinforcing proper fundamentals at each future match (rather than speed). I think speed will come naturally when the fundamentals become second nature....

Been shooting some practice IDPA with a local club for the past few months and will go to my first match in October. I'm really having a great time with all of this. BTW, I shoot an xdm 9mm.

Hi Everybody!
I am new to IDPA, and I am looking forward to attending an IDPA match to see how a match is played out. I also would like to participate in competitive shooting. I own a H&K USP Compact and a USP Tactical in .45 and also a S&W 1917. My USP Compact is my carry pistol ( when not in Maryland) and I am most interested in sharpening my shooting skills with it, but I also want to have some fun. A realize that my USP Compact has only 8rd mag capacity which is a...
