I have shot IPSC (Major - Limited (now Limited 10) ) for many years and am now considering getting involved with some 3-gun matches.  Primarily for the challenge of stepping outside my comfort zone (competing with just my pistol !).

I'd be gratefeul if y'all could point me to:

-some reputable 3-gub websites that cover the basics of getting started

-a site that covers the rules of the sport (I'd like to remain in Limited division)

-any info / advice you can share on gear selection would be greatly appreciated.

I assume I may be in the market for an AR type rifle and a shotgun shortly!

Thanks in advance!

PS: if this info is already on www.ar15.com my apologies....I did do a search for "3-gun" and it came back with 0 results.

My selection is an A2 M4 type Bushmaster 14.5 HBAR/phantom carbine.A mossberg 590 pump with top folding stock and a Colt 1911A1 modified as far as parts and polishing.Wilson 47D mags in the pistol and the grey steel brit and singapore AR mags.Only 4 oz heavier and a little more care maintaining when used in wet weather but smoother  function and tougher resistance to damage than GI mags.I use the new magpull followers in them.My gear selection is a simple custom built rig with H suspenders at its core and an 8 point attachment system with a camel back.....that water is a god send when your running around trying to beat the clock and hit the targets.My club uses a pretty simple set up for a course but its fun has a cash prize and the course can be changed up so your not shooting the same set up time and time again.
