More Info about IDPA Pistol.........
Defensive pistol membership and matches are open to all who
can legally own a handgun in South Carolina. Defensive Pistol
shooters come from all walks of life and include many women.
A sport the entire family can enjoy!
Shooters competing in Defensive Pistol events
are required to use practical handguns and
holsters that are truly suitable for self-defense
use. No "competition only" equipment is permitted
in Defensive Pistol matches since the main goal is
to test the skill and ability of an individual, not his
or her equipment or gamesmanship.
WHAT IS DEFENSIVE PISTOL
SHOOTING?
Defensive pistol shooting as a sport is
quite simply the use of practical
equipment including full charge service
ammunition to solve simulated "real
world" self-defense scenarios.
