USPSA/IDPA classifications

Post by hesedmedia » Mon Mar 16, 2009 6:13 pm

How would one go about getting classified in either uspsa, idpa or both?

In USPSA, you have to shoot three matches then the home office will send you a updated membership card with your classifications.

In IDPA, you are classified at a match that is the classifier course. The RO will write on your membership card what class earned by your results. I believe the next IDPA match is a classifier.

Hopefully one of the IDPA Gods will be on here shortly to verify or debunk, what I posted.

Although I only consider myself a lesser deity of IDPA, I can answer the question. The next IDPA match is the classifier-90 rounds per weapon used, concealment not required. We should have about five of them set up, and that will be all that we will be shooting.

Nope, let me splane (scuse me while I whip this out).

Game; lets time this and see how you do on hits & time.

Real; people shoot back or try to hurt you.

I know FTDR.

PS: Matt I think you are more of a mid level deity with move up potential.

I imagine that MRB could arrange for someone to shoot at you during the match if you think that would help.:D
