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 and not affiliated with the International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA).
The Montana Defensive Pistol Association is dedicated to providing a safe 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 events every third Saturday of the month (except August) from March through November at the Logan Shooting Range. Registration starts at 9:00am and we begin shooting at 9:30am. We charge $15.00 per event to offset our costs.
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 learn to shoot better, faster, safer and have fun doing it.

Our first match of the year is Saturday, March 21, 2009. This is going to be a “match and a half”. We will setup six stages and shoot through them once and for those shooters that want to stay we will shoot them again. We may change up the CoF on the second pass just to keep it interesting. We hope to set up most of the match on Friday afternoon starting at 3pm. We can use your help for this set up. We will complete set up Saturday morning starting at 8:30am. Remember anyone who helps Friday or Saturday (starting at 8:30am) shoots for half price. The minimum round count for the six stages is 62. Bring twice that so if the weather is nice you can shoot the second six. Remember we need your help with pictures and recruiting. So bring a camera and a friend. |
