Who is interested in new options for shotguns for IPSC and 3-Gun competitions? Breda America, a brand under Banshee Brands LLC, has just unveiled their latest models for competitive shooters worldwide: the Breda B12i/T4 and B12i/T4 X Competition Grade shotguns. These firearms are engineered to enhance performance in 3-gun competitions, with features like ambidextrous charging handles and easy-to-use controls. If you want to play, the MSRP starts from $1,899.

One of the things I don’t get to do often enough is talk to shooters from other parts of the globe. Miles V (our guest from a couple of weeks ago) who has spent a lot of time in Thailand recently introduced me to Chun who was able to participate in the 2022 IPSC World Shoot which was hosted in his home country this year in Pattaya, Thailand. Getting to talk to shooters and competitors from other parts of the globe is really eye-opening because I’m often quite surprised by just how much talent and dedication exists in countries where firearms laws aren’t nearly as permissive as they are in the United States. Today our guest Chun helps us recap the 2022 IPSC Handgun World Shoot XIX, some of his gear preferences, as well as what some of his plans are as far as competing goes down the road in 2023.

CZ handguns are some of the most well-known across the world in both the duty and competition shooting categories with the CZ P10 being very popular among European police agencies and the CZ Shadow 2 series of pistols being one of the most popular selections for USPSA and IPSC competition disciplines. CZ is proud to announce the addition of their new CZ TS 2 ORANGE sport pistol designed around the IPSC shooting discipline featuring a heavy bull barrel for increased accuracy, and control in competition environments.

Photo Of The Day and we have a bunch of action shots from Bulletstorm II, the first Swedish Championship in IPSC PCC (Pistol Caliber Carbine). A two-day, twelve-stage, level three competition with over 200 competitors and 30 teams. All the team fees were donated to Ukraine. 

Tanfoglio came out ready to showcase their latest and greatest at IWA 2022 and TFBTV Producer James Reeves was able to get a great interview with Mr. Tanfoglio himself to talk about the new Stock III Pro handgun. Tanfoglio’s main focus as of late has been to cater to the highly competitive IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation) which demands accurate, high-performance handguns. So what’s up with the Stock III Pro handgun, how much will it cost you and when can you get it?

In my trips to the range, I have only dabbled in shooting steel. Everyone’s gateway metal target is rimfire spinners or resetting targets and those are really enjoyable. Can shooting a big AR500 silhouette really be any better? I’ll let you know below in my review of the Caldwell 66% IPSC Silhouette Target. Let’s dive right in!

If you are a competitor in the IPSC Standard Division (or similar division in other shooting sports like USPSA), there is a new gun to watch out for. The new CZ TS 2 Sport Pistol is primarily developed for this division and has a single-action only trigger mechanism and it “fits the box”. While the external appearance of the new TS 2 is very similar to the CZ Shadow 2, the company claims that it was built completely independently of the CZ Shadow. “TS” stands for Tactical Sports. Above you can see the “Deep Bronze” version, and below the base version.

Three years ago, Pete wrote about the  Practisim VR shooting simulator. Well, it has popped up again in the hands of probably the best dryfire practitioner on the planet, Liku_Tactical. If you recall, exactly one year ago, Liku_Tactical was flown from Japan to shoot firearms for the first time in his life with his mentor Lucas of TREX Arms. Well, he continues to practice and he is doing dry fire training with Practisim VR.

Last year TFB published this interview with the multiple-IPSC World Champion Eric Grauffel as he changed brand and joined the CZ Shooting Team. IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation) together with CZ firearms have now announced a global partnership in the field of “IPSC Handgun”. If you remember, Kahles recently did the same thing. Read our article IPSC and Kahles Optics Enter a Global Partnership to refresh your memory.

The ELEY Team from the United Kingdom has a brand new centerfire ammunition offering. The caliber is .38 Super Comp with a 124 gr. bullet weight.

We should be thankful for the companies that support our interest in shooting and competition, and today TFB can reveal a new partnership that has been formed on a Global basis between IPSC ( International Practical Shooting Confederation) and the Austrian company Kahles Optics.

Vince Pinto posted an interesting historical tidbit on Let’s Talk IPSC (Facebook) with a quote from Jeff Cooper (1920-2006). If you don’t know who Mr. Cooper was, it can be mentioned that he was a United States Marine and is seen as one of the creators of modern shooting techniques.

At SHOT today, ELEY, the well-regarded makers of 22LR precision rifle ammunition unveiled their first foray into centerfire cartridges with both a 9 Major offering and a 38 Super Comp offering. ELEY has a long history of making high-performance precision cartridges for competition, and they’re bringing that expertise to centerfire cartridges. Competition shooting was at the forefront of both rounds design, with an emphasis on USPSA and IPSC matches.

I have a dream! A dream to compete in IPSC Practical Shooting in The Olympics before I die (better hurry!)

It’s not every day we get to tell you about a new handgun, but today we have the pleasure of introducing the DWX (Dan Wesson X).
