USPSA

USPSA and IPSC shooting are the most popular forms of practical pistol competition world-wide. They emphasize speed, accuracy, tactical skill, and creative problem-solving.

Shooters compete in eight divisions:

1. Production: Double-action or striker-fired handguns, caliber 9mm or larger, with limited modifications. These are mostly carry guns, similar to the IDPA SSP division.  There is an approved list located online.
2. Revolver: Six-shot double-action revolvers with iron sights and unported barrels. Revolvers with higher capacity, optics, or ports can compete in Production or Open divisions
3. Single Stack: Traditional 1911-style autos, with limited size, weight, and magazine capacity.
4. Limited: Autos with larger magazine capacities. Most modifications are allowed except ports, compensators, and optic sights.
5. Limited-10: Similar to Limited but with magazine capacity limited to 10 rounds.
6. Open: Pretty much anything goes. Open guns usually have huge magazines, optical sights, and compensators.
7. Carry Optics:  Approved production guns with the addition of a slide mounted optic.  Modification is permitted such as stippling, slide cuts, and aftermarket triggers.
8. Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC):  A carbine (with a buttstock) that shoots a pistol cartridge.
