I have been shooting informal IPSC matches for a while with my CZ-75 Wondernine. I want to start shooting IDPA as well -- as more practical defensive practice.
The theory behind IDPA, as I understand it, is to "shoot what you carry." My carry gun is a S&W 442 -- a 5 shot j-frame.
I realize I could shoot the 442 in the backup division and shoot the CZ in SSP or ESP -- but that is not what I carry. Does anyone shoot a j-frame in SSR? Is it possible/practical to do so? I know I may not win an matches with a j-frame -- but can it reasonably be done?
In IPSC for example, the strings are usually 6 shots each -- making a 5 shot gun totally impractical.
What do you guys think?
