PLEASE READ!
In order to compete in our matches, shooters must either have a USPSA or IDPA classification or attend our New Shooter Safety Orientation. Arrangements must be made in advance (or the instructor may not be available). You will need your hearing and eye protection, pistol, a holster that covers the trigger, magazines, mag pouches, ammunition, a belt to hold it all and anything else you plan to use for the match. Matches will be designed with the goal of shooting four different stages per day. You should plan to bring 80 - 100 rounds per match. That will allow you to shoot the day's stages safely.
