New IDPA Divisions proposed
Retro Shooting
The joke has been made that IDPA's rule set doesn't really reflect actual street carry guns so much as it does actual street carry guns of the early Nineties, and so it should be called Retro Action Shooting or something in recognition of this fact.
What would be cool would be if this were formalized into a ruleset with maybe a little cosplay added, the way Cowboy Action Shooting and its Wild Bunch and Zoot Shooter spinoffs have done.
- I'm Too Old For This Shit Division: Must shoot from concealed. Style of sports coat can vary. Revolvers or subcompact single stacks that are era-appropriate. PPKs, J-frames, or you can rock a Model 29...
- Welcome To The Party, Pal Division: Unconcealed (Concealment Optional.) Large capacity autos permitted. Make sure any Wayfarers are ballistic-rated.
- Ross Seyfried Division: Single-stack "open" guns circa '80s-early '90s. Bootie shorts, tube socks, porn staches, and foam-front meshback trucker hats are mandatory. Adhesive pornstaches (or faux beards to hide "superface") are allowed for participants unable or unwilling to grow their own facial spinach.

But I know one thing that never dies,
the glory of the great dead.

Aaarg.
You got me so excited. I thought the Tacticool Ninja division with optics and WMLs had been suggested.
I realized it was too close to the 2017 release with the PCC division but I was hoping.
Was funny though.

Re: New IDPA Divisions proposed
I propose a DGAF Division.
Only the senior competitiors (60 plus) may enter in this div.
Any gun goes and based on simplified rules where cover lines, mag capacity restrictions, mag change rules and pies dont count. It will be fun.

Okay... so I need a little guidance here...
I don't do well with 'subtle'. How many of these suggestions are mildly ironic?"Always remember to pillage before you burn"

Re: New IDPA Divisions proposed
The problem with seniors is they're usually grouchy irritable bastards, quite capable of "accidentally discharging" a round in the SO's foot...or pip, then claiming it was a sudden temporary fit of Alzheimers or arthritic fingers.
I would steer clear of the fuckers, or at the very least watch them extra carefully.
