UKPSA Handgun Commission News
Good news for practical pistol competitors in Northern Ireland. In 2012 the UKPSA will assist in organising a series of events. The UKPSA has set up a Handgun Commission to promote both club level and graded competitions, which will be run to IPSC rules. The will be similar to the Shotgun Commission that was set up to promote practical shotgun competition. There is now a very healthy calendar of practical shotgun events across the UK. The intension is to use the same approach to develop practical pistol competition. This will commence with two Level II Graded Matches and two Level I Club Matches. These will be the first graded IPSC events in Northern Ireland since 2008
In Northern Ireland around 150 people compete in club level matches and UKPSA members their have wished for the re-establishment of graded competitions. This wish will be reality in 2012 with the UKPSA organising a series club level and graded IPSC competitions run to IPSC rules.

The Level II Graded Matches will be held in May and August. The Level I Club Matches will take place in April and July. This news will also be of interest to practical pistol competitors in the UKPSA’s two neighbouring IPSC regions in the Isle of Man and the Republic of Ireland, who will also be able to participate in these events.
As well as the competitors who will take part complying properly with IPSC rules and regulations, the events will also to be run properly as well. To ensure this the UKPSA have confirmed dates for a two day Range Officer training course – which will be 23rd and 24 March 2012 respectively. There are also a number of current UKPSA members and former members who live in Northern Ireland who were previously RO qualified. The UKPSA will also run a one day training course that will enable current members and former members who rejoin, to re- qualify as Range Officers. This will take place on 25th March 2012
If you were previously a member and rejoin in the month of March 2012, you will not have any back dues to pay. You will get your original UKPSA number back. Your membership will run to the 1st April 2013. The membership fee is currently at £42 and will most likely be the same for 2012.
You can enter the L1 club match in April without rejoining, but do need to be a member to take part in the graded L2 matches. You can do an assessment get your Competition Licence back. This assessment can be carried out at your own club range, or can be carried during the L1 competition. An instructor can travel to any club to conduct a two day basic safety course and also to carry out any re-assessments.
For those who want to be kept informed of UKPSA competitions, training courses, re-joining the UKPSA, doing the RO course or re-qualifying as an RO and when competition entry forms will be available send an email to :
