You will need to ask HQ for the original EPS file from PhotoShop or whatever program was used to create it. I just ran it through Inkscape to create a vector format and it looked like crap.

Does anyone have this logo in a digital vector format?

I like having the choice. I used to live in a land-of-bad-things. Random street violence was routine. Advertising that you even just may have a gun on you could very well end up badly. Even if you survive you get to go through all the BS. Plus, there's a lot of locales where the cops or the employers or the "PC nazis" or etc. are trolling around looking for those with the means to defend themselves. So having the option is cool. Other IDPA folks will recognize it. And yeah sure,...

I agree with you, but in some areas, a gun shirt can invite a call to the cops, and...

I like the new logo. I don't have an issue with the old logo but I would never wear my IDPA hat out around town with the huge handgun on the front. However, the new logo is very well done and I'm impressed that they listened to the membership and addressed the issue. Now member have a choice as to what logo they want to wear without someone telling us which one we HAVE to wear.

Thank you IDPA!

I just renewed my membership and got a sticker of the new logo with the letter from HQ. It looks good.

I just copied it from the IDPA website. It's not my trick!

Michael Jackson printed his last album in 6 colors, so the collectors would have to buy all of 'em!

Very nice logo. If NHL teams can come uyp with three or four variations of their jersys to generate new sales why not IDPA? In any event I think it looks good and fills a niche. We are a world wide sport and if it helps the guys in places where the old logo was seen to be offensive to the public then this logo solves the problem.

Take Care

I like the new look to the Logo. My reasoning has nothing to do with political correctness though. The main logo is just to much noise when you look at it. I prefer small logos, especially if I put them on something. If HQ qill make some vehicle decals to sell in the Pro shop, then I'll probably buy one for each vehicle.

I'm sure some people won't like it, but hey thats why they are keeping the old.

And anyone that knows me can say to the above title "yep, that's her...". I like the logo. What the heck is the majority grousing about? Look on the NRA's website, and you'll see many variations of the NRA logo or script of it on shirts, hats, etc.

HQ isn't replacing the original logo. Put away the pitchforks and maces, everyone.

I don't mind a realistic pistol in the logo for the International Defensive Pistol Association and consider the new swoosh a weak move.

But then I do not put shooting logos on anything but shooting gear.
I don't want to advertise my guns to thieves with car decals, for example.

It is is a nice solution here because it gives the member a choice.

Has anyone seen the new non-gun logo?
Can't find it on the IDPA website.
