"What is practical shooting"? I asked Todd.
"It's the coolest"! Said Todd, as he lounged behind the glass display case. "They set up a series of targets and you are timed as you shoot at them. It is one of the only times it is OK to run on the range with a loaded gun in your hand".
The image of my concealed carry classmates, armed AND running began to make my armpits damp.
"How are they on safety"? I asked.
"Oh, they are extremely safety conscious". Replied Todd very earnestly. Todd and the rest of the staff at the gunstore were the most firearms safety conscious folks that I had seen. They had better discipline around firearms than all of the police officers that I know, several of whom I am related to. With the staff's safety record in mind and trusting Todd, as he had been honest with me, and patient in answering all of my naive questions, I noted that the next IPSC match was at 6:30 PM on the third Saturday of the month.
