Most of the guns used were stock service pistols, lots of Glocks. Several customized 1911s but they all looked stock with nothing hanging off them.

I just showed up with a couple of hundred rounds, hearing protection, Sig 228, 3 mags and a $30 holster i bought used on the SigForum. I put the 2 spare mags in my back pocket.

The folks there were generally friendly and not snooty. Just respect the safety rules, be courteous, listen, learn and have fun. Just like going to a DE.

No need to join the NRA, heck i did not even join the IDPA, just paid the non-member $15 fee.

added: Actually it is very much like going to a DE, street driving is like shooting at a static range, this is like driving your 911 on the track. You are going to learn a lot about the machine, yourself and how to make the 2 work well together.
