About IPSC

Shooting according to IPSC rules was created in the 1970s as a dynamic sport that combines speed with precision. It consists of several divisions, with the most important being Open, Production and Standard. During competition, shooters are required to fire from different positions and at static/moving targets while in motion. The strategy for solving each shooting scenario is not predetermined and only the results of the point-based evaluation system determine the winner, which takes shooting speed and accuracy into account. IPSC shooting places extraordinary demands on weapons, both within the competition itself and during intensive training, where tens of thousands of rounds are fired. Special CZ sport models have long been among the best and most successful pistols for this popular sport.
