"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms ... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. ... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." -- Thomas Jefferson

Their review was quite interesting. They gave rave reports on the match and the friendly shooters but they didn't mention that one of their team member was dq for doing a 360 and other team members were warned several times about almost sweeping themselves. In other threads on their website they stated that how IDPA doesn't give them everything they're looking for, such as corporate sponsorship, team participation, prize tables, etc. They're planning to start a shooting organization that combine both GSSF prize giveaway with IDPA like courses of fire. They said they've never been to an IPSC match either but they think that allowing pistols with slide forward and hammer down between stages are dangerous compared to slide lock back in holster or case as in GSSF. They also said that their propose COF will not allow moving with loaded guns from one position to another. Although I don't want to discourage participation in any shooting event, I have reservations about this venture.
