I would encourage everyone to participate in IDPA. I think it is the greatest training tool available for defensive pistol. There is a huge emphasis on safe gun handling. While under pressure, you have to be constantly aware of where your muzzle is pointed, where your finger is, how many rounds you have in your gun, and whether there are threats present.


Race guns are not allowed. No optics, compensators, slide lightening, oversized release buttons, etc. allowed. The idea is to compete with the kind of gun you would actually carry or use in a home defense situation.

In other words, you don't need to have an expensive gun for IDPA. But you do need a reliable gun!
