Shooting Disciplines
IDPA
Defensive-scenario pistol matches under International Defensive Pistol Association rules.
What is IDPA?
IDPA stands for the International Defensive Pistol Association. It is designed around the use of practical equipment — including full-charge service ammunition — to solve simulated "real world" self-defense scenarios and real-life scenarios. Shooters competing in IDPA events are required to use practical handguns and holsters that are truly suitable for self-defense use.
No "competition only" equipment is permitted in IDPA matches, since the main goal is to test the skill and ability of an individual, not their equipment or gamesmanship. One of the unique facets of the sport is that it is geared toward the new or average shooter, yet it is fun, challenging, and rewarding for the experienced shooter.
