I've been doing IDPA for a couple years now and its a blast. I am thinking of giving IPSC (USPSA) Production division a try to get more trigger time. I realize that they are both games but I was just wondering if any of you guys did both. From speaking to a couple of buddies that do both, they say there is a much higher round count in IPSC (which I like). Compared to IDPA there LESS practical defensive application (if any) in IPSC other than shooting quickly and accuarately. Some common mistakes made with the crossover is dropping a loaded magazine in IPSC (OK) vs IDPA (No) and using cover in IDPA vs not required in IPSC. There is also slight equipment differences. I can still use the same gun but IPSC is looser on the rules of the type of holster, and mag carriers you can use and thier postion. I have to wear a cover garment in IDPA. Are there any other littler differences that might bite me during a match? I'm thinking the good (and fun) will outweigh the negatives.
