SUMMARY:IDPA Match
DESCRIPTION:The International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) was founded in 1996 with the goal of creating an action shooting competition based upon the realistic use of handguns for personal defense. IDPA offers an exciting forum for practical shooters in which truly practical equipment\, techniques and courses of fire are mandated. Prior to IDPA\, there was no place to compete with common service pistols. There were no shooting sports where your concealed carry handgun could also be your match handgun without handicap. \nIDPA matches at NWCSA usually consist of 6-7 different courses of fire (stages) where you will shoot about 100 rounds of service ammo (9mm/.38cal min). Shooters are timed and coupled with accuracy of fire a score will be assigned. There are no awards or cash prizes. Shooters attend an IDPA match to learn and improve their skills in a safe and friendly environment. \nIf you have never shot an Action Pistol type competition and would like to learn more we offer a no cost 2-3 hour workshop that will cover everything you need to know to be ready for your first match. If interested\, please contact ap@nwcsa.org. \nSafety brief\, pledge\, and walk through of first stages begins 8:45AM. \nPlease arrive 45-60 min before match start time to register and gear up. \nPlease note that pre-registration and payment is required on Practiscore.

SUMMARY:GPA Match
DESCRIPTION:This is a Galactic Pistol Alliance (GPA) match. GPA is very similar to IDPA but operates under a different (and relaxed) set of rules.  Notable differences are: \n\n24 rounds maximum per stage\nCarry as many mags as desired\nOne mandatory reload per stage – you decide when and where\nTargets may be required to be shot while moving\nNo tactical priority while shooting in the open\nDrop a loaded mag with no penalty\nUnlimited steel targets\nUnlimited non-threats\nNo cover garment\n½ second scoring\n\nThe biggest difference is in the shooter classification system. Stages have a PAR time\, and you are ‘graded’ on how you stacked up against your fellow competitors. Your classification can be adjusted up/down depending on your performance match to match. \nGPA FAQ’s \nComplete GPA rule book can be found here. \nGPA matches at NWCSA usually consist of 6-7 different courses of fire (stages) where you will shoot about 150 rounds of service ammo (9mm/.38cal min). Shooters are timed and coupled with accuracy of fire a score will be assigned. There are no awards or cash prizes. Shooters attend a GPA match to learn and improve their skills in a safe and friendly environment. \nSafety brief\, pledge\, and walk through of first stages begins 8:45AM. \nPlease arrive 45-60 min before match start time to register and gear up. \nPlease note that pre-registration and payment is required on Practiscore. \nIf you have never shot an Action Pistol type competition and would like to learn more we offer a no cost 2-3 hour workshop that will cover everything you need to know to be ready for your first match. If interested\, please contact ap@nwcsa.org.
