USPSA Shooters: Do You Carry a Gun?

1.3.1

I saw that but it stated for level 2 and 3 matches. Thought there would be something for general affiliation / level 1 matches.

I copy and pasted this, didn't turn up anything.

Appendex A1, and number 1 for those who can't find it.

I've run many a match with IWB holster. Guess I'll be looking for my DQ for it.

I carry Morning noon and night. I have a 1911 on a rope for the shower. (ever seen the movie : " I spit on your grave" ).

Ok well this is 90% true. You guess which part.

Edit: For the Job that seems to be part of the discussion.

I carried at work for years at a place that said no guns. No one knew and it was never an issue.

When I started the new job I just asked flat out. New Boss said hell I have a 12 ga behind the office door.

Now I even open carry at times.

I try to make it a consistent habit to leave my carry gun in the car. Do not want a silly dq or cold range rules violation and tend to feel pretty safe on the range, bad guy shows up and folks are going to be competing for best group size and split times.

No rule issues with IWB. Most ROs don't care for it because usually the shooters are new and are not very good at reholstering. If you are safe, then rock on.

Basically the holster has to be on your belt. After that, I think the only position that would not be allowed is behind the back due to the 180 issue. IWB on the side would be legal in all divisions. AIWB would be legal in Open, Limited, Limited 10, and Revolver. AIWB not legal in Prod, SS, and CO.

Damn uncomfortable for most divisions and pcc might result in an unplanned sex change (although you do wonder about some of those guys).

Dude's on a roll!

USPSA doesn't welcome those who aren't as competitive?

I always feel welcome when I go to USPSA Matches.

Wait....what. ****.

I'm just glad ya'll let me shoot with you.

Why? USPSA is a sport/game. I'm not going to wear work boots to play basketball.

Hey now, I've played basketball in slippers and swatch seasiders on my highschool days and I still was competitive.

How many here have shot a USPSA match with an IWB holster? Hands please...

RedWings provide better ankle support. Plus they look good in the office or in the field.

if you are the Ro you pray there are not any! nothing like a guy hunting for his holster if you are behind him.

that being said, USPSA does not have a carry gun division. all divisions have holster placement in their rule set.

Haven’t had it yet. Honestly never thought anyone would show up with an IWB for USPSA. That is what IDPA is for. After reading all the comments in this thread, looks like it could happen. I will have a conversation off to the side with Mr. IWB before any shots are fired.

Are you joking?

How long have you been shooting USPSA?

I seen a lot of guys shoot a match with an IWB holster. Yes shirts have to be retucked from time to time, but no more so then an OWB pancake holster. Stuff staying tucked in is one advantage of the colorful shooting shirts, range holsters and big Velcro belts.

I have also seen entire matches shot from concealment, entire matches shot weak hand only and entire matches shot with a subcompact pistol. As long as it is safe who cares. USPSA is a great way to make a person have to think with a gun in their hand.
