I saw a TV show over the weekend that dealt in part with 3-gun competition. (We were out of town, it was on a station we don't normally get, the Outdoor Life Network).
The guy showing all the three-gun stuff had three really nice guns, a comped 1911, an AR-type rifle and a semi-auto shotgun. I personally would classify all three as "race guns".
Now for my questions:
Is there a governing body for 3-gun? Something like IPSC, IDPA, etc?
Are there classes for 3-gun like there are for IPSC? If you didn't want full-blown race guns but wanted to shoot would you be competing against the guys with the high-tech stuff?
Does one REALLY need the high-tech stuff for 3-gun? Could someone show up with (say) a .357 revolver, an SKS and a pump-action shotgun and shoot AND be competitive if he did his part?
Finally, does this sport even EXIST in NJ?
