DEFENSIVE PISTOL. ALL RANGES CLOSED

Defensive Pistol is an enjoyable, responsible way for gun owners to hone safe shooting skills by using practical handguns and holsters that accurately depict experiences in controlled, real-world experiences. The main goal of Defensive Pistol matches is to test the skill of an individual, using practical pistols to solve challenging and exciting self-defensive shooting scenarios. During a match, you will be drawing your holstered handgun to engage multiple targets, actively move between various shooting positions, shoot on the move, perform tactical reloads and more, all while being timed.

Defensive Pistol Courses of fire fall into two categories: Self-defense scenarios and Standard exercises. Self-defense scenarios are simulations of actual or possible real-world confrontations using props, barricades and various layouts. After a walkthrough of the course, individual shooters are timed while they maneuver the stage. Scoring is based on a combination of time and accuracy. Standard exercises allow an opportunity to focus on specific shooting and gun handling skills. All scenarios include shots from 1-15 yards.

Both categories test for accuracy and speed. Physical condition has very little to do with your performance in a Defensive Pistol match. Although all shooters participating are scored and ranked, Defensive Pistol is about improving your own ability. If you're interested in using truly practical pistols to solve challenging and exciting defensive shooting scenarios, then Defensive Pistol is the sport for you.
