Skip the race gear — your EDC pistol, a concealment holster, and a cover garment will get you to your first match for under $640.</p> https://airsoftshottimer.com/en/posts/idpa-rules-guide/ Tue, 10 Mar 2026 10:00:00 +0800 https://airsoftshottimer.com/en/posts/idpa-rules-guide/ <h2 id="why-you-should-understand-idpa-rules-before-your-first-match">Why You Should Understand IDPA Rules Before Your First Match</h2> <p>For most new shooters, the biggest source of anxiety at their first IDPA match isn&rsquo;t the shooting itself — it&rsquo;s the fear of accidentally breaking a rule and getting penalized.
