Action Shooting is a dynamic genre of shooting sports that emphasizes speed, accuracy, and quick decision-making. Participants engage in various scenarios that often simulate real-life situations, using handguns, rifles, or shotguns. Competitors navigate through courses, shooting at targets while moving and reacting to different challenges. In Action Shooting, events are typically organized into stages, each with specific rules and objectives. Participants are scored based on their performance, including time taken and accuracy of shots. Popular organizations, such as IDPA (International Defensive Pistol Association) and USPSA (United States Practical Shooting Association), host competitions that attract shooters of all skill levels.
