Match Results |

Welcome to the Front Range IDPA©
Website |
|
The International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) is
the governing body of a shooting sport that simulates self-defense scenarios
and real life encounters. It was founded in 1996 as a response to the
desires of shooters worldwide. The organization now boasts membership of
more than 20,000, including members in 50 foreign countries.
One of the unique facets of this sport is that it is geared toward the new
or average shooter, yet is fun, challenging and rewarding for the
experienced shooter. The founders developed the sport so that practical gear
and practical guns may be used competitively. An interested person can spend
a minimal amount on equipment and still be competitive.
The main goal is to test the skill and ability of the individual, not
equipment or gamesmanship. “Competition only” equipment is not permitted in
this sport.
FRIDPA encourages shooters to practice
their gun handling skills with commonly carried firearms. Many everyday
carry firearms do not fit into the competition divisions so another
division is supported:
SPD - Specialty
Division (All firearms must be
safe and serviceable. This division allows cartridges smaller than 9
mm, activated lasers, non-illuminated mounted lights, and
other pistols which do not fit into the other competition divisions.
All other IDPA equipment rules apply for holsters and loading device holders
as well as their placement on the body)

Camera Policy |
|
Front Range IDPA©
has a camera policy that if a non-shooter/non-member wants to come to a
match and take pictures, movies, likenesses, etc., of the match/shooters,
they must seek and obtain prior approval from
Front Range IDPA© B.O.D.
Also, if prior permission to trespass on a given range is granted by
Front Range IDPA©, this shall not be
construed as permission to take photographs, movies, likenesses, etc., of
any individual shooter without their own verbal or written permission.
If you are a Front Range IDPA©
shooter/member, ask permission before taking photos/movies of your fellow
shooters. If someone/organization shows up at a range during our matches to
take photographs, movies, likenesses, etc., without obtaining prior
permission from Front Range IDPA©,
they will be asked to leave immediately.
