IDPA match rules/regs

[JasonBurns]

Hey, I've shot at the range out there several times with buddies of mine that are members (I've applied every year but never heard back) but never been to one of the IDPA matches. I'd like to go to the one tomorrow and just wanted to check in and see what the rules are. I was planning to use my Glock 17, but wanted to see if there are any mag capacity limits (I'm not bringing my 33s lol, but I don't have any 10rnd mags). All my G17 mags are the standard 17rnd capacity. I can load them down if needed but wasn't sure if this was permitted or not. Also is any certain ammo prohibited? I generally shoot the Tula 115grn steel case stuff and Federal 115grn brass when just plinking around.

Any information appreciated!

I apologize that I haven't been on here and did not reply before now. You can use your mags and only load 10 rounds per mag. It is normal for most of us. Also any factory ammo is fine. The biggest issues are ussually safety and holsters. Your holster must be worn on a belt that goes through your belt loops and it cannot have a rear ward tilt. You are welcome to attend and participate at any of our matches. Once again I apologize for not answering earlier.
