IDPA or 3 gun in Alberta?

[Grizz Axxemann]

I'm just curious if there is anything going on in the Edmonton area that I could come by and watch, and such. I've read up on IPSC, but am curous about IDPA and possible 3 gun matches.

The next IPSC match in the Edmonton area will be at the Phoenix Range and Gun Shop on Feb 5th. Come check it out!

IDPA will be coming to southern Alberta in the new year with the creation of the "Alberta Tactical Handgun League".

Wild Rose Action Shooters sometimes (maybe once a year) put on 3 gun matches out in Spruce Grove.....

i think all Wild Rose Gun Matches are now three gun matches. call the Phoenix for information.

Thanks for the info, guys. I'll do my damnedest to make it out to one or two events to check it out. I like the idea (my wallent and Mastercard won't!) of three gun, and IDPA appeals to me more than IPSC "racing"

Looking to also find out more info. Sorry for the "piggy back"ing

What specifically is 3 gun?

 

[Walter Hornby]

IPSC and IDPA are both shot the same way. the difference is the rules.

three gun matches are normally shot with a handgun, shotgun and a rifle.

What limits on rifle and shotgun? Type, style, caliber....etc?

For IPSC rules go to:

I think most clubs that run '3-gun' make up their own rules.....

Thanx Dragoon.

Seems simple enough.

both you want shoot as fast and accurately AND as safely as possible. Production and Standard are similiar for firearms/gear with IDPA, but with out the race holsters.

I get the gist of IPSC, but what about IDPA and PPC?
