I am doing an IDPA 3 gun shoot tomorrow. Here is my new tactical pump shotgun. It is a Tristar Cobra 12 gauge with a fiber optic front sight. 5 in the tube and 1 in the chamber. Read a lot of good reviews on it. One of the interesting features is a spring assisted pump. Pull back to bring in a new shell and it returns by itself. I have shot a lot of pump shotguns so this will be interesting.
Anyone else done any IDPA shooting. I am using my HK USP .40 for the pistol and my DPMS Panther AR-15 for the rifle. It looks like fun. I am a complete newbie to this type of shooting.

As luck would have it the shoot got rained out. I did get a chance to meet the guy who runs it and several of the other shooters. They gave me a run down of how it all works and one of the ranges dried up and we did get a chance to practice with our handguns and AR's with a couple of scenarios. You are definetely right about going slow. It is way different when you actually have go thru the steps vs shooting at a paper target. We had a blast. I look forward to the next shoot in January.
