The last issue of "Front Sight" (the official mag of USPSA) said they are
going to change to a system of sending out qualification stages every month
and ask clubs to use them.  They hope this will cut the time to qualify
down to 90-120 days.  I hope it happens.  I have been shooting with an
IPSC registration since Jan of this year and have only managed to shoot
5 classification stages.  It takes something like nine to get classified.

If you are a stock and or revolver shooter write to USPSA or call; now is a 
pivotal time.  I want to shoot stock and compete stock.
