Another match made great by our 23 shooters. We had perfect weather (well, it got a little warm there for a while). Congratulations to our champions: John Mingo, Nick Pipinich, Sharon Eliasson, Eric Gilbertson, Travis McKlosky, Darren Cunningham, David Albright, Robert Hall, and Frank Martin. We owe an honorable mention to Bryan Gillette who, though currently unclassified in MDPA, shot a very fine match. These shooters really burned up the stages. Special Announcement: This was John Mingo's last MDPA match as our Match Director. We want to thank him for many years spent designing hundreds of challenging stages for us. In "retirement" John will be able to focus even more on his shooting. We better watch out. Thanks to the Roundup Gang (Sharon, Sharon, and Dorelle & Max) for the sun shades and for running score sheets. It takes a lot of people to make a match like this successful. Our next match is Saturday, Sept. 18, and we have some interesting "activities" planned. Details will be published in the coming weeks. See you at the range! |

Saturday, August 14, we had perfect weather for a night match. The extreme darkness was a great challenge for our twelve shooters. We shot eight stages with movement, reloads, and moving targets. Quite a workout! Saturday, August 21, is our State Championship. It is a more complex match so we do not allow first-time shooters. The State Championship requires advance registration, has a different set-up time, and a higher fee to help cover the cost of more setup and other prep. Please check out the "State Championship Match" section on the left side of this page for more information. Please email me today if you are going to shoot this match! |

Congratulations to Travis McKlosky and Eric Gilbertson who really burned up the range. NOTICE: MDPA is hosting a NIGHT MATCH on Saturday, August 14, at the Logan Range.

It is a longer, more complex match so we do not allow first-time shooters. The State Championship requires advance registration, has a different set-up time, and a higher fee to help cover the cost of more setup and other prep.

The Montana Defensive Pistol Association (MDPA) is a shooting club. We are open to the public and have no membership requirements. MDPA is sponsored by the MWA Logan Shooting Range. We are not affiliated with the International Defensive Pistol Association.
MDPA is dedicated to providing a supportive environment to train for and practice real-life defensive shooting skills using standard handguns. We believe if you are going to keep and/or carry a handgun for self-defense you have a responsibility to learn and practice to use it safely, accurately, and quickly.
MDPA offers the best defensive shooting training and practice in the area. Shooting with us offers you a unique opportunity to test and improve your handgun safety skills, your shooting accuracy, and your gun-handling speed. Our shooting events are fun, challenging, and rewarding.
We host shooting matches the third Saturday of every month from March through November at the Logan Shooting Range. Most events will have ten different defensive shooting problems allowing you to develop and practice a variety of defensive shooting skills. Each problem and the skills required are explained before you shoot. Experienced shooters are grouped with new shooters to answer questions, offer advice, and help in anyway they can.
MDPA welcomes new shooters and we invite you to join us at our next shooting event. You will have fun while improving your handgun skills. Please contact
