This Week: The Best in IDPA Competition
USA –-(Ammoland.com)- Shooting USA – The IDPA Nationals
It’s the IDPA National Championship, the shooting sport derived from concealed carry training will crown the champions. International Defensive Pistol Association competition is a shooting sport rooted in the practice of concealed carry, not necessarily training, but still a great way to sharpen the skills that could save your life. And in this day and age that is a popular combination. Plus, Garry James with the story of the Broom Handle Mauser, that’s now one of History’s Guns. More Info…
