Practically Speaking: An Illustrated Guide; the Game, Guns and Gear of the International Defensive Pistol Association

The first-ever book written specifically for IDPA shooters, this is a how-to book that covers the history, philosophy, guns and gear of IDPA. Over 100 full-color photos illustrate the 80 oversized (8 1/2 x 11) pages, guiding the shooter from start to finish in gun and gear selection, as well as shooting techniques. Included are eight real-world courses of fire and, for the first time in print, the complete list of "Rauch's Rules for the Real World." This is a comprehensive manual explaining the "how" and "why" of IDPA matches from a real-world perspective.
