IDPA class at Tri-County Sportsmen’s League!
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with the club, I just shoot IDPA matches there, but the Team running the show at TCSC are so professional and experienced, I just thought to spread the knowledge about the class so people interested in IDPA can give it a try.

Where: TCSL, 8640 Moon Rood, Saline, MI 48176
When: Bi-Monthly (starting in April), 11am – 5:00 pm.
Cost: $35 (non TCSL members) / $25 (TCSL members)
Meet at clubhouse (upstairs) at 1 pm - with all equipment (see below)
NO AMMO IN CLASSROOM
What to Expect
IDPA is a shooting sport that uses practical equipment (including full charge service ammunition) to solve simulated “real world” self-defense scenarios.
Shooters will be introduced to IDPA rules and techniques, as well have the chance to practice defensive shooting skills in simulated “self defense” scenarios. We will practice the following skills in a simulated match:
Drawing from “concealment”
Shooting while moving
Using appropriate cover while engaging targets
Shooting from kneeling or prone positions
Shooting at “moving” targets
Emergency (slide lock) reloads
Tactical reloads
What Equipment do I need?
Service type pistol or revolver of 9mm/.38 special or lager caliber. If your handgun is suitable for self-defense use, it will probably be competitive for IDPA matches.
Practical concealed carry type holsters are stipulated for IDPA use. A common service pistol or revolver such as a Beretta 92F, Glock 17/22, Sig 226, Colt 1911A1, S&W 686 or Ruger GP-100 carried in a common pancake style holster is all that is needed to be competitive in IDPA matches.
You should also bring two extra magazines (or speed loaders) and two magazine holders for your belt.
Concealment Garment
At least 150 rounds of ammunition
