4th Sunday of the month, USPSA at East Huntington Sportsman's in Alverton. The May match was last Sunday.

Here is info on getting started in USPSA http://www.uspsa.org/uspsa-about-getting-started.php

Lots of good info there! thanks for the link. I would prefer to take the 238 (.380) but im unsure as to whether it would meet the power requirements in any given class?

edit: looked at the approved weapon list...the 238 doesnt make the cut. are there any competitions that are exclusively for pocket pistols/BUGs?
