Im giving serious thought to a trip out to Greenville for a CCIDPA match, ......

Thanks!
I know nothing about Greenville so I am partially talking out of turn. That said, in my limited IDPA experience the folks out there are interested in having a fun and safe time. There will be some gamers that are there to try and win. But I have never had anyone turn away a question or a helpful conversation. For some, fun is in the winning. For some the fun is in practicing moving and shooting. I have not experienced arrogance because my fun was different from someone else's.

I have seen some elite gun snobs at the "90 degree" ranges and a few at gun shows. I have yet to find one at an IDPA match.

I vote for you to go have fun. Go slow and listen to the SO and the rest will work out.
