IDPA DIARIES II: 2nd IDPA Match & Glock 19 RTF2

About this video

Colion shares his experience shooting his second IDPA competition and reflects on his growing addiction to competitive shooting. He discusses technical issues he experienced in his first match (slide lock problems), his performance on steel versus paper targets, and procedural penalties he incurred. Colion explains his evolving mindset from focusing purely on defensive shooting skills to wanting to balance combat accuracy with competitive performance.

Key takeaways

• Colion reports resolving his slide-lock issue from the first competition, which he attributes to adjusting his grip to avoid his thumb resting on the slide lock
• Colion describes steel targets as more intimidating than paper because misses are immediately obvious, though hitting steel provides instant gratification
• Colion acknowledges he lost procedural points by failing to shoot on the move and not properly using cover, and notes his competitive nature is pushing him to balance defensive shooting fundamentals with scoring well in matches
