ผมเชื่อว่าการยิงปืนแบบ IPSC เป็นการยิงปืนที่ให้โอกาสกับคนที่มีความแตกต่างกันมากๆสามารถร่วมการแข่งขันกันได้ ไม่ว่าจะตัวเล็กตัวใหญ่ ผอมหรืออ้วน วิ่งเร็ววิ่งช้า ปืนถูกปืนแพง ๆลๆ ถ้าสามารถชดเชยส่วนที่ด้อยด้วยส่วนอื่นๆได้ก็ยังสามารถเคียงบ่าเคียงไหล่กันได้อย่างสนุกสนาน
นี่แหละครับ เสน่ห์ของกีฬาประเภทนี้
ข้อความข้างล่างนี้ เขียนโดย Nick ประธานสหพันธ์ไอพีเอสซีคนปัจจุบัน เมื่อต้นศตวรรษที่ ๒๐ 2000 AD is here. The new millennium brings with it
excitement, anxiety, and hope for the shooting sports.
During the last 200 years shooting has been one of the
world's favorite recreational activities. As we enter
the new millennium, millions of people continue
to participate in different shooting activities worldwide
using firearms of all shapes, forms, and sizes. Striving
to achieve their personal best, they flock to the shooting
ranges to test their skills, enjoy the camaraderie of
friends, and to simply have a great time.
We in the shooting family are united by our love for
firearms and the mechanical and ballistic precision that
allows us to push firearms to their physical limits of
performance. We are also equally challenged by the precise
physical coordination and mental discipline necessary to
make our sporting equipment perform to the highest levels.
Man and machine together, functioning cohesively as one.
That is the exhilarating thrill that the shooting
sports offer.
Each type of firearm is different and each shooting sport
is unique. This diversity adds color, excitement, and
challenge to the shooting sports. It is also this
diversity that has kept our shooting games from achieving
their full growth potential.
It is no secret, shooters are highly fragmented. Shotgun
shooters will only play with shotguns and pistol shooters
will only play with pistols. Sporting Clay shooters would
rather not play Skeet, and Trap shooters would rather not
touch rifles. And the list goes on. This mentality
permeates all the way to the national organizations.
Each shooting game today has it's own shooting organization
but no single organization exists to gather all of these
shooting sports under one umbrella. No one is looking after
the collective interests of all the shooting sports today.
Can you imagine all the states in the U.S.A. functioning
individually without a federal government? Every state
would continue to exist but the U.S.A. would not be the
world superpower it is today. The fraternity of shooting
sports is in desperate need of a unifying world body to
watch over the common interests of all gun games worldwide.
