Oh boy. I did the safety course a few months ago, but i have had shot only static before today.

It was a lvl2 match, 12 stages over 4 hours. I shot production with my arex delta.

Goals achieved: not DQed. Probably not last! Goals not achieved: not missing some targets entirely. Completely brain farted in the second half sometimes.

Some people are absolute monsters. I mean you can watch on YouTube but it doesn’t do it justice. But it was also reassuring to see that even seasoned players sometimes fumble. Makes getting better seem a little more realistic.

Anyway. It sucks that i effectively cant train aside simple drills (no ranges that allow anything other than static pistol shooting in reach), but i’m excited to get more hours in once i move starting next year.

Just wanted to share, no big revelations for yall. Thanks!

Asking for us Canadians who's entire IPSC scene is about to get nuked following our extremely short-sighted governments new proposed law that is going to ban all handguns sales short of those needed for training for an Olympic event? If we could somehow get IPSC into the Olympics, it would allow all those of us with a passion for it to continue to enjoy our sport and keep the scene alive. Go figure they tabled this right when I finally got my rig all purchased and was about to go take by Black Badge and start competing.

What are the most popular pistols in the world, used by IPSC champions and produced later than 2015?

In the world of IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation), the most popular pistols tend to be those that are highly customizable, accurate, and reliable. Champions in IPSC often use firearms that are specifically tuned for competition, and many of these are produced by companies known for their competition-grade firearms. Since 2015, several models have gained popularity among IPSC shooters, particularly in the Production, Standard, and Open divisions. Here are some models that have been popular with IPSC champions:

CZ Shadow 2 (Production Division): Released in 2016, the CZ Shadow 2 quickly became a favorite in the Production Division due to its weight, balance, accuracy, and the smoothness of its action.

Tanfoglio Stock II / Stock III (Production and Standard Divisions): Tanfoglio pistols are known for their performance in IPSC competitions and are widely used by top competitors, especially in the Production and Standard divisions.

Sig Sauer P320 XFive Legion (Production and Carry Optics Divisions): Introduced as part of Sig's P320 line, the XFive Legion features a heavy tungsten-infused frame for reduced recoil and is favored in both the Production and Carry Optics divisions.

Walther Q5 Match (Production and Carry Optics Divisions): The Walther Q5 Match, particularly the SF (Steel Frame) version, has been well-received in the IPSC community for its ergonomics and accuracy.

Glock 34 Gen 5 (Production Division): Glock pistols are renowned for their reliability and the Glock 34, with its extended barrel, is a common choice in the Production Division. The Gen 5 introduced several enhancements that made it more appealing for competition shooters.

STI / Staccato 2011 (Standard and Open Divisions): The 2011 platform, originally developed by STI (now Staccato), remains a top choice for IPSC competitors, especially in the Standard and Open divisions. These pistols are known for their high capacity, excellent triggers, and the ability to be extensively customized.

Infinity Firearms (Open Division): SVI Infinity pistols are highly customizable and have been a top choice among Open Division shooters. Each gun is built to order, allowing competitors to specify exactly what they want.

Remember, the specific preferences for IPSC competition pistols can vary significantly among shooters, and what works for one champion may not be the choice of another. Additionally, the choice of pistol can be influenced by the division in which the shooter competes. Open Division allows for the most modifications and typically features pistols with compensators, red-dot sights, and other modifications that are not permitted in more restrictive divisions like Production, where the firearms used must be closer to their factory configurations.

You know you missed the target, we know you missed the target, but shooter argues for a double….on a swinger.

Is this part of the sport? Heard a lot of stories about world shoot. Are people screwing themselves by being honest?

I can tell you in the last 2-3 years it seems honesty has come around at least here in the states where I’m at (PNW). Is this the case? Or should we embrace the “cheating”

I’m setting up my uspsa belt for Ipsc and want to verify if I’m good on the hip bone rule. Any help is appreciated 🙏

I currently

Is there a weight limit to Production Optics? And if so, would this make the cut? Lok Grips palm swell brass and 19 round SP01 mags (loaded to 15).

Looking at shooting both IPSC Production and IDPA, but didn't see the Defensive variant of the 92X Performance on the list of guns allowed in IPSC Production. Would I have any trouble if I tried to bring the Defensive to an IPSC shoot?

I saw in the 2019 IPSC handgun rule book, that "aftermarket trigger assemblies are permitted". What exactly is meant by that?

I don't know if this is the lastest edition of the rules but it was the only one I could find online. I'm still very new to shooting but I would really like to do something about my trigger. It's lovely, smooth and crisp but the reset is quite long and it is a tiny bit heavy.
