tl dr; you buy a handgun, his business loans it to you for 1 year increments. You need RPAL, range membership, and IPSC membership.
More details: this is also an avenue to kinda inherit guns. ie: he buys your dead dad's handguns, then loans it to you. It's also another avenue to sell your unwanted handguns for more than a slap in the face.
Would you be able to elaborate a little bit please and thank you? I do understand what you’re saying I’m just curious about the details. I’ve never been involved in competitive shooting, I’m curious what sort of timeframe I would be looking at? I do possess an RPAL and a range membership, I only own NR’s. Is a full IPSC membership required or is an associate membership enough? From the little research I’ve done, it seems I will need to possess a pistol before I can take the black badge course, and eventually apply for full membership.
