Practical Pistol Shooting is a an international action shooting sport where competitors combine power, accuracy and speed. Differing from bullseye or Olympic target shooting we combine movement, multiple targets, reloads and unique one-off stages to compete and have fun!

The predominant sanctioning bodies are IPSC, USPSA, and IDPA.

Action shooting is for anyone who can legally own and safely operate a firearm in a competitive environment.

Competitors of all backgrounds are welcome. Male or female, young or old, fit or no so much. Younger shooters will need to be accompanied by a legal guardian.

This sport is a great way to test the reliability and operation of your equipment and prove that it can handle a serious workload.

Dallas Action Pistol Shooters is a local non-profit organization for, uh, action pistol shooting! We are the enitity registered with USPSA who organize and hold the matches.
