TK66 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Well, it looks like the stars have finally aligned! I have been shooting IDPA for 5 years or so and have always been interested in USPSA, but after joining I never even went to a match. I'm really looking forward to this although its going to be strange without a actual sequence to engage targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egd5 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Yeah, no one to hold your hand telling you which way to shoot the targets---that's what makes it fun. You'll like it I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi-Power Jack Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 1. If you have to take couple steps - Reload. 2. Do NOT shoot to Empty. This will save you Lots of time in USPSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi-Power Jack Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Definitely NOT. I was just kidding around with the "newbie". You cannot possibly have too much ammo with you - never know if you'll drop a mag or anything else goes wrong - better to have too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first made the switch, The hardest part was not being told how or what to shoot. Welcome to a whole new world of fun. Oh yeah, forget about reload with retention and cover. Slidelock is bad in USPSA. Plan your shots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
