Canadian IDPA
Not seriously considering it, but I noticed there is a major match in Britich Columbia, Canada in August. It made me wonder what, other than a passport, woud be required to get you and your pistol (including hi-cap mags) legally into Canada to shoot the match and then back into the USA. I am guessing it is a ton of prep and paperwork, even more so if flying, and that you may not even be possible with hi-cap mags. It is my understanding that the Canadian government is not big on private gun ownership, nor hi-cap magazines.

Re: Canadian IDPA
Hi cap mags are illegal in Canada. Traveling by land is easier if you want your gun into Canada. Not all handguns are legal too

Re: Canadian IDPA
Better idea, go with no pistol and borrow on there. So many shooters has so many pistols.
