KDFGC 1500 (PPC) KDFGC is a member of the CPCA, the official national organization for PPC/WA1500 in Canada. KDFGC 1500 Instructors and Sr. Range Officers are highly experienced former law enforcement firearms instructors. Local, Regional, Provincial, National and International competition is available for our KDFGC 1500 members. KDFGC 1500 (PPC), is a handgun target sport focusing on timed precision shooting from a variety of stances (standing, kneeling, sitting and prone) at varying distances (3, 7, 15, 25 and 50 yards), including shooting from behind an obstacle. The start position for every stage is the competitor standing with a holstered handgun (pistol/revolver). The competition is considered one of the forerunners of practical shooting. The competition format was founded in the U.S. between 1957 and 1958 and was intended to help police officers improve their firearms skills in the line of duty. Originally this was a revolver-specific competition because most police officers carried this type of sidearm, but was later expanded to include autoloading pistols. Through the years the discipline has been known by various names such as "Practical Police Course", and "Practical Pistol Course"; but "Precision Pistol Competition" is the official name used today by World Association 1500, the international sanctioning body. The sport has become popular in the United States, Sweden, Germany and Canada, and official matches are no longer restricted to police officers or military personnel. Club members wishing to participate in KDFGC 1500 must have either completed KDFGC Handgun Level I and II, or other professional holster training (Law Enforcement, Military, IPSC, etc.), along with an evaluation by the Senior Range Officer. The KDFGC Firearms Academy regularly offers Handgun Level II (Intermediate) courses to train members to participate in this exciting target sport. In addition to training, a quality belt, holster and magazine/speedloader pouches are required. KDFGC 1500 trains year round, with winter training indoors, and summer training occurring at the UIT/1500 Range. Check the calendar page for the most up to date schedule.
