Been playing some of those games for quite some time. Pros and cons for both shooting hobbies. If you choose IDPA, your handguns listed above will serve you well. If you choose USPSA your equipment will be suitable for some categories of competition but not others. If your new hobby becomes your obsession you will most likely end up purchasing the same types of equipment proven to best perform in the sport. With respect to Competitive IPSC shooting tenths and hundredths of a second often make the difference. But regardless of which venue you pursue, you are likely to enjoy greatly your time pulling the trigger.
