What is the IDPA?
IDPA, the International Defensive Pistol Association, is what IPSC was many years ago. It was created to provide a forum for those wishing to compete with practical carry guns, gear, and ammo. Everyone can compete, not just on an even basis, but on PRACTICAL courses. The courses either test practical pistol skills or have the competitor solve a problem that could be encountered using a pistol for defense. Civilians with CCW permits, the lost tribe of old IPSC, LEOs, and those wanting a more realistic sport are being drawn to IDPA in large numbers.
