We shoot an IDPA style match that is designed to improve beginner through advanced Defensive Pistol techniques.

We promote safe, proficient use of firearms and equipment suitable for self-defense. We offer a practical shooting environment encouraging competitors to develop skills and fellowship with like minded shooters. Our courses of fire are practical and realistic that test skills that could be required to survive life-threatening encounters. Techniques will include skill building from ‘presentation’ of the handgun, reloading methods and shooting techniques from ‘close contact’ through 25 yards. Other skills will involve items such as ‘after-action’ drills, malfunction clearing techniques, and even philosophical concepts such as ‘the combat mindset.
