It can get pretty crowded in the silver/gold bays, I never really hang out in the bronze bay. I usually go around meal times to avoid the crowds.

Who: Eugene Practical Shooters
What: USPSA/IPSC, IDPA, and speed steel pistol.
When: 1st Saturday IPSC, 2nd Saturday speed steel (range benefit), 3rd Saturday IDPA. 4th Saturday range cleanup work party.
Where: Isaac Walton League of Eugene, on Issac Walton Road. From the Lorane Hwy, off Chambers, take a left at McBeth rd (at the Grange Hall) and follow McBeth to a left onto Issac Walton.
Why: Because it's excellent.
How: Gates open at 8:00, registration at 8:30. First time attendees must arrive between those times for an orientation and rules overview. Gates close at 9:15, and lock. Walk through begins concurrently, shooting starts between then and 9:30. Shooting at 9:00 for steel match.

How much: $10.00 for the steel match. $15.00 for IPSC, and for IDPA without an IDPA membership card. IDPA members shoot for $10.00.
BYO ear and eye - Rx eye is OK (that's how I roll,) but don't sue anyone if lack of side protection comes back to haunt you. Range is COLD until timer is at the ready.

We get a lot of great and knowledgeable folk, and while I haven't been attending as long as many there - I haven't seen any bad apples yet. Safest practical shooting environment I've been a part of so far, and fun to boot. That said, we could use more ladies.

Edit: We don't stop shooting for sun, rain, hail, snow, or hippies - so dress accordingly and bring water/coffee/whatever. Insider tip - the grange hall on the way in/out opens it's Saturday market near the time we wrap up (around 12:00-1:00,) lots of great seasonal produce and flowers, and stuff. Stop by for some good deals on the way to dinner. Beware of townie VW micro-bus types, but it's a great little market that not a lot of folks know about, unfortunately. The Grange is a great organization.

USTRA, Formerly USTACRA is a carbine match which is similiar in feel to USPSA.

It is held every second saturday of the month, and rules, scores and schedules are found here:

It's a great match and frequented by many WA area LE professionals, as that range is frequently used for LEO training.

Videos of my friends and I running the CoF are pasted below
