Lower Providence USPSA: Special Classifier Match

Lower Providence USPSA - Classifier Stage - 2012

With Winter almost over, the USPSA Season in Pennsylvania is just a couple of short weeks away. To kick off my season, I’ll be attending the Lower Providence USPSA Special Classifier Match on Saturday, March 2, 2013. The match will consist of 5 USPSA Classifier Stages and 2 Field Courses with an approximate round count of 150.

After shooting a Winter full of IDPA, I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a positive performance. I would hate to begin shooting and suddenly stow a magazine during a reload, or worse yet, run the gun dry and perform a slide-lock reload. Neither instance would be good for my already sliding C Class Percentage.

My name is Walt White and I've been riding motorcycles on and off since my early twenties. After more than a decade away from the sport, I came back - and I've been making up for lost time ever since. Based in Southeast Pennsylvania, I write and create videos about real motorcycle ownership: the bikes I ride, the gear I test, the roads I explore, and the community I've found along the way. I ride a 2022 Yamaha MT-09 SP and a 2023 Kawasaki Ninja 400, and I try to give you the honest take you'd get from a friend rather than a press release. I'm also a husband, dad to three girls, and a pitbull owner - which keeps life interesting off the bike too.

  1. Just do your run-through on the USPSA stage, and then run your plan. Just being able to do a run-through will help you keep to the USPSA plan.

    A tip on keeping IDPA and USPSA separate – always wear your IDPA vest when you practice IDPA, and never when you practice USPSA. Every little thing helps.

    1. I should be okay. I’m still at a point where a reload with retention or a slide-lock reload feels unnatural. Before performing either one I have to go over it in my mind before starting the stage, so that I don’t revert to USPSA rules and forget.
