I recently had some rule questions about division specific equipment that I sent to the USPSA rules committee, and was extremely disappointed in their answers. I asked very detailed questions, and from 2 different people got the same answers: refer to section bla bla bla, or appendix so and so. I replied that I knew how to read, but needed clarification on a certain point. Nope, just read the rules. They have made it clear that they have no interest in us as shooters.
This is why I let my membership lapse and just do local matches at my club. I could care less to give them money when they operate this way and really the money is just for classification which I see as a waste of money. USPSA classifiers are a joke in my opinion and classifications should be determined based of match point percentage rather than a stage. how you score on stage for classification seems counter intuitive to me. Overall I think USPSA needs to implode and fail and hope that someone has the investment power and time to create another shooting sport.
If one is aggressive or being a total d about something, that’s one thing. But banning someone because they called you out is a power hungry move. Honest question, do you miss participating in the sport?
Who would have thought the fishing vest IDPA weirdos would turn out to not be that bad. Wouldn’t it be a hell of a thing if you could use a phone app to record a stage and have machine learning score it? Let’s just cut the BS and replace some of the processes and give casuals a nice digital skill badge. Shoot in an indoor, run stages, whatever. Abstract out things many os us don’t have time for.
And this is why I stick to outlaw matches. A wise man once told me . “ It’s more fun to have fun”

Everyone just wants people to shut up and fall in line!!! Not me!
Some decent matches around here in Dallas that you don’t even need to be a member of anything. Just bring your cash and have a good time.

This is bullshit. This should be allowed.

Is there a way we as members can recall a board member?
