Do you use your carry gun for IDPA or IPSC or do you have different guns for games and carry?

 

[Shane1911]

Same for both - Para P13-45 Ltd.

I have different guns for game and carry that are mainly different in trigger weight. The purposes are different so the guns are different. I will occasionally bring our my carry gear and shoot a match that way for the practice. Nothing like a little stress to hone the skills.

Mostly same gun (Kimber Custom Classic) but then I carry different 1911s from time to time but mostly just carry the Kimber. I have shot IPDA with a backup gun from time to time just for the practice.

Carry on,

Yes, mostly a G19, but may feel frggy and use anther glock. For BUG matches I use a 85 or 605 and some times just stick one of them in a pocket if picking up a loaf of bread or something.

Again yes.

Same gun -- BHP.40. Although I do shoot different guns in IDPA on occasion just to keep things interesting.

IDPA, I shoot my box stock Kimber Classic Custom. It also serves as my carry gun. Since IDPA is a bit more realistic in some scenarios, I shoot IDPA with my stock carry gun.


IPSC, I just acquired a Para-Ordnance P14 and some High Caps, Ultimately, I'm going to have some work done on the Para that would disqualify it from IDPA competition. Since the gun would be modified for competition, I likely will never carry it,,,,,just because there are some #[email protected]@#$%! mind you not all,,,,but some attorney's out there who press every angle of an issue should I ever need to defend myself with my firearms.

Thanks,

When I carry I use a 1911 set up exactly the same as my IDPA gun except its set up for full load 9x23 or 10mm.

 

[abnranger]

I shoot a number of different 1911s but they are also the same one's I carry. Not special set-ups here.

 

[BillD]

I have 2 1911's that I carry (not at the same time) and they are the only guns I use in competition. I don't have seperate pistols for carry and games. Same guns. They are on my hip when I get to the match and on my hip when I leave.

 

[imported_vluc]

Same styles.

SIG 226 for IPSC in production class.

SIG 225 for IDPA (my carry gun).

 

[Tom Freeman]

For BUG matches, they are the same gun, a Smith J-frame Ti in 38 Special.

My carry gun has an aluminum slide and frame, so I don’t like to put a bunch of ammo through it. I maybe shoot 500 rounds through it a year. Great to carry, but a handful to shoot.

My IPSC guns have nothing to do with carry. They are about going fast and having fun. Even my Production Division/IDPA SSP gun is covered in skate tape. If the skate tape wasn’t there, it would make a great carry gun.

All of my IDPA guns would qualify as gamer guns. So would I for that matter…

Same but different. I carry a Kimber Classic Stainless, but I compete with a Kimber Classic Stainless Target. Both are .45's and both were worked on by the same smith. I found that I could shoot a 1911 quite well in competition, so might as well carry one as well.

 

[MarkP]

Carry guns for IDPA > Glock19 and Cmndr 1911.
For IPSC>glock17 1st generation with a bunch of hi caps.
All with Heinie sights..
