Umm you can use more than 10rds in USPSA.

Many clubs will also just overlook hicaps in IPDA simply for the fact they'd rather go on the honor system than force you to use 10rd magazines. Just as long as your first mag only has 11 and the other ones to be used for reloading have 10. Its not exactly *hard* for the RO to count if you shot 11 or 15 since your last reload.

Don't try to use a holster for competition and concealed carry...please. First we're talking the difference between probably OWB and IWB and I don't even think IWB is legal in USPSA. If you want to get something simple, go with a Fobus paddle or belt holster. Those can be had for $20 and there's no use in spending a ton of money just starting out.

I advise on grabbing 1 or 2 fobus double mag holders, preferably in belt attachment style.

One last thing, practice, practice, practice. Go in your room, make sure the weapon is unloaded, practice dropping mags and putting another in, practice draws so that when you bring it up, its already sighted in.

Pick a lightswitch or any other nicknack on the wall, dryfire, drop mag, reload, bring your sights back up, did you hit that lightswitch again?

If you want to shoot IDPA, practice magazine reloading with retention (not letting the mag drop to the ground). More info can be found on their site about this.
