Can anyone point me in the right direction to start getting into IDPA/USPSA in SW VA, Roanoke/NRV area? Ive shot in GSSF matches before, but  looking to expand my shooting horizons

Quoted:
Roanoke Rifle and Revolver Club (RRRC) hold both USPSA (Every 3rd Saturday of the month) and IDPA (Action Pistol) (Every 2nd Saturday of the month) shoots every month and they are open to the public. Christiansburg Izaaak Walton Chapter has IDPA (Action Pistol) every 3rd Saturday of the month March-October or November and are open to the public. Red 6 in Lynchburg does/did IDPA but I heard they were shutdown due to zoning issues and I don't know if they have reopened or not. There may be more in the area but these are the only 2 shoots I attend.  

*I added the (Action Pistol) because they aren't true IDPA events. They are based on IDPA and follow most of the rules, but there is a lot more leeway at these events as far as gear and weapons. At the RRRC shoots we mostly adhere to IDPA rules and format, but at the Christiansburg IWL shoots we often involve very minor 2-gun elements where we shoot pistol and a shotgun or pistol and an AR and we often shoot targets which are not IDPA approved. I guarantee you'll never shoot through a car windshield at an IDPA sanctioned match

I co direct the IWLA match in Cburg, and do a large portion of the stage design. We would love to have you out for the next match. I used to shoot the RRRC match every month but it has been hit or miss this year. There's usually a large crowd, and it takes forever. I put quite a bit of thought into the stages at our match. We have a car, a door, lots of walls and a range where we can shoot 180 to the line on both sides which allows for shoot house style stages. There's a good group of guys and we always have a lot of fun. Feel free to IM me for more info.

I shot action pistol out of IWLA for the first time earlier this summer and had a great time. Everyone was very helpful. If I had a better work schedule I would be out there every month but unfortunately it just hasn't worked out for me.
