James Tarr has a great description of what we do..........His response is:

 

High Speed Decision Making With A Gun In My Hand

 

I always kinda liked that one, because anyone can press a trigger, but can they think on their feet, make good decisions and keep the shots in the A zone at warp speed? While drinking milk straight out of the carton, running with scissors, leaving all the lights on in the house with the windows open as the neighbors watch and you are encouraged to run faster knowing Mom is not going to be happy. Yeah, it's like that....

My usual answer is "Run and gun action shooting."

 

I've given a similar answer, when asked, but then they look at me (I'm 70 years old) and say, "You run with a gun in your hand?" :lol:

Well,... I shoot real life scenario tactical combat shooting!  (aka IDPA) 

 

So, that's what I say. 

 

"Real life scenario tactical combat shooting"

 

 

 

be careful when you say that to people. someone may get injured when they fall over laughing...

I usually say speed shooting, because action shooting doesn't mean anything to most people and saying competitive pistol makes people think Olympic style bullseye events.

I've used the phrase:   competitive  speed pistol shooting

Them: "Wat u do?"

Me:  "Competitive pistol shooting... USPSA."

Them:  "Wat that?"

Me:  "It's like putt putt golf courses, but with running and a pistol."

Them:  "Wat look like?"

Me:  "Search 'USPSA' on Youtube and click a few vids.  Skip the ones featuring heavy mouth breathing and plumbers' cracks.  Watch the ones with Ben Stoeger to develop your baller envy, and Taran Butler to find out where all the hot chicks that aren't at our clubs go."
