Sorry about it Mike. When the honorable Mr. Cooper formed IPSC and was Executive Dictator, IPSC was maintained as a excercise for people who carried guns in real life.
Once he left, it became a game.
I've shot in "combat" matches before IPSC was invented. Still do. Reloading is not a factor in real life. Skeletonized holsters and drawing from a "taut" position aren't much for real life, either.
The trick is to design the match to test the ability of a person to operate a sidearm quickly and accurately. Firing a 15 round burst may be entertaining, but not germane to self defense.
