I finally went down to GCL and shot in the USPSA and had a great time. I didnt finish the best, but wasnt last. Unfortunately, I totally skipped a target on accident. Not having mag carriers didnt help either, pulling mags out of jeans pockets is not the hot ticket. Great bunch of people there, I will go back. For anyone who has not done it I highly recommend it!!
Shot USPSA for the first time

Awesome!
Welcome to the party.
Welcome to the party.
Aaaahhhh, GCL Wednesday nights.
A friend used to call it the primordial pool of competition shooting.
Just be careful who you associate with there -- some bad influences. Especially the tall guy with lots of grey hair & beard. Tell him the NICE guy asked if he knows anyone named Siiiiiiiiiiiinthia.
And buying those mag pouches you wish you had is gonna be the first step on a very slippery slope. Good luck.

What's the major differences between USPSA and IDPA? I've thought about getting back into competitive shooting, but something other than bullseye.

Rules.
As far as i am concerned IDPA sucks . It is bogged down in stupid rules.
Shoot what is available near you. Shoot both if possible. IDPA shooting is better than no shooting.

Ok thanks. Simple enough. There's a range near me, Square Deal, that shoots both. Maybe I'll check them out more.

Good club. They put on some great matches.
Definitely shoot all the matches you can.

I stopped up to their range one day about 15yrs ago to take a look around seems I drove by the place every day. A few guys were there shooting silhouette and we talked for a bit. Really nice people. They asked if I had any guns on me to join them for some practice, I couldn't refuse. Ended up shooting a couple hundred rounds with my bullseye guns. Didn't even care that I wasn't a member, but they made a good impression for the place.
One divorce and 14yrs later I should stop up again. This time to join their club.
