In this episode of A Pirate Talks Guns, we delve into the dynamic world of competitive shooting sports, exploring their variety and relevance to shooters of all skill levels. Starting with an overview, the episode highlights the major shooting disciplines: practical pistol shooting (like USPSA and IDPA), precision rifle shooting, shotgun sports, and the intense 3-gun competitions. These disciplines each demand unique skills, from quick transitions in 3-gun to calculating ballistic trajectories in long-range rifle matches. With emphasis on how IDPA and Steel Challenge competitions are particularly beneficial for concealed carry permit holders, as they closely mimic real-life defensive scenarios and build practical shooting skills.
