ronhonda 86 Posted August 5, 2013 Are the pistols limited to idpa rules, or can you use optic equipped pistols? 8.2.7 . Not For Competition 8.2.7.1. IDPA encourages shooters to practice their gun handling skills with commonly carried firearms. Many everyday carry firearms do not fit into the 5 compe tition divisions. 8.2.7.2. IDPA allows clubs to add a “Not for Competition” scoring division for Tier 1 matches only. This allows calibers smaller than 9mm, carry optics, and other pistols which do not fit into the 5 competition divisions to participate in local club matches. http://members.idpa.com/Content/Rules/zfr0uypv.fy3.pdf New rule book goes into effect on 10/1/13 Email match director and see if you can shoot your gun if it is a carry optic type.

GTIMKV 0 Posted September 4, 2013 Hi there, I got a question for Sunday's IDPA match. The website says its a "rifle and pistol combo match". Does it mean that I need to have both a rifle and a pistol to shoot, or I can just shoot with my pistol as in a regular IDPA match? I don't have a rifle yet.

Krdshrk 3,878 Posted September 4, 2013 You can shoot either or. Pistol only is fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HuntingPaper 62 Posted September 22, 2013 Do I need to hide my shotgun and rifle under a fishing vest or can I use a trench coat? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClangClang 14 Posted September 24, 2013 Nick, any updates on Oct 13? Also, I'm not sure I'll be finished with building my rifle before the 13th. Can I use a 9mm carbine? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,878 Posted September 25, 2013 Checking. And yes if it's a 3gun you can use your 9mm carbine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,878 Posted October 3, 2013 Sorry for those looking forward to it - I just checked the website - it looks like it's a normal IDPA match on the 13th. No 3gun this month. Not sure about November. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
