Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
We have no affiliation with IDPA, however we have several members that are also IDPA members. Those same said members run our forum that is related to that and they can help you with any questions regarding IDPA/IPSC type shoots. TomFreeman seems to be the main person here on that issue and he is also USAF, out at Peterson I believe. Welcome, hope you can make our shoots also. Karl.
ok well i'm confused. i sent tom a pm. so what are the shoots like that you guys do? they seem to be on the same days as what is advertised on the FRIDPA website. anyone know kerry buckey? he's listed on the idpa website as the poc for FRIDPA.
and since i'm so lost as too who i'm planning on shooting withops: what gun(s) should i bring? i've got a glock 22 and a brand spanking new bushmaster m-4....with no ammo so if i'm going to bring that i need to get some rounds
Welcome to the gaggle. Since I shoot IDPA and just came into posession of a new XCR, I'm in the same quandry. The IDPA shoots are at the CCCSC range off I-70 around exit 235 in Dumont the 2nd Saturday of every month (weather permitting). There's also an IDPA shoot out of Pueble on the 3rd Saturday of every month (weather permitting). The rifle shoots are also the 2nd Saturday of every month (weather permitting) and alternate between a north location out of Lyons on the back road to Estes Park and a south location out of Woodland Park if memory serves. I'm hoping to make my first rifle shoot this Saturday (weather permitting), but I also haven't made one of the IDPA shoots since last summer (weather and travel weren't permitting).Originally Posted by usafk9leads

Our club shoots are informal shoots we all just get together and shoot for fun. You can bring any gun you wish to a club shoot there is no rules as to what you can bring, except NO illegal weapons. If your interested in IDPA if you go two boards down from this one that is where they post all IDPA events and 3 gun ect.and since i'm so lost as too who i'm planning on shooting with
A lot of the people don't come to club shoots if they interfere with a match. You just have to decide which you wish to attend a club shoot or a match.
"The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion." (Edmund Burke 1784)
The shoots that we have (2nd. saturday of each month alternating between north and south locations) have NOTHING to do with anyone but us. No IDPA/IPSC/USPSA/NRA etc. They are semi-formal shoots. We have rules, but mostly just safety related. There is no "course of fire". It's just a bunch of people getting together for fun shooting. Rifles, pistols, shotguns, mg's, etc.
You can bring almost anything really. We only limit the ammo slightly due to the forest service regs. (and common sense). :roll: No Tracer, incendiary, flamethrower, dragon's breath, etc.
TomFreeman is a regular at the IDPA shoots and he moderates the forum here that is related to IDPA/IPSC shoots. He is a good point of contact as far as this board goes. As for any other website, talk to whom ever they tell you to. I know ZakSmith, bluker1, and a few others also shoot 3 gun and the like so they can help you also. Karl.
okay guys well thanks for all the help. i was a little confused and Tom put me on the right track. sounds like i'll be checking out the match shoot and go from there. thanks all of you for the help. i'm sure we'll run into eachother.

Guys,
The weather is cold enough just outside my front door.
If you think I'm going to go up 3000 feet in elevation & stand around in the snow all day, well.....
Anyways, I'll see you all next time maybe.
