On the topic of competitons, I just attended my first pistol match yesterday, and had a great time. All you need is a gun w/holster, belt, 3-4 mags, and something to carry them in. Dont hesitate to attend an event, even if it's just to watch. There are great guys on this board, and I'm sure they'll make you feel welcome.
