IDPA does not train you for real life

By | September 27, 2013

You probably have run across this picture of the Kenya Mall Attack:

Kenya Mall IDPA

Now, if you’re like me, you’re probably wondering why the hell those two guys on the left look like they’re running the Realest IDPA stage ever*.

Well, the reason is because they were at and IDPA match when all that started.

IDPA doesn’t train you for real life. That doesn’t mean IDPA shooters don’t shoot in real life.

    Um, three guys, and I’m not happy with muzzle discipline on our far left. Right side could use some help with indexing. They may get DQed and have to sit out the rest of the match…

    Srsly, good work,guys.

    Looks like he “may” be indexing on the trigger guard. and “some” folks teach indexing on the side of the trigger but I always found that a bit iffy.

    Is there a 4th guy barely visible on the right edge? And is that ear protection about where the head would be?
