International Air Steels Program (IASP) is shooting any CO2 or gas powered multi-shot air-pistol/rifle or airsoft pistol/rifle that is similar in design to any “real steel” semi automatic rifle, pistol or revolver. It is a totally inclusive sport with shooters of all ages (8 – adult) and abilities competing together. Safety is a priority so those new to the sport will be required to have a safe gun handling course. It is very necessary to understand all safety, range commands, rules, body position, grip & hold.
IASP is very easy to understand. There are five metal plates “down range” all plates are painted white but one plate is known as the “Stop” plate. The shooter is required to start in low ready position, unless they are in the adult/senior open division the pistol holstered on the hip (drop leg holsters, shoulder holsters etc are not allowed) the shooters hands must be in the “surrender” position at the start of each run.
On the audible start signal the shooters engages each of the ‘bang target’ plates (one shot on each plate) in any order but the stop plate must be hit last. The last shot will stop the timer and the total time for that run will be called. There are five runs at each “stage” the worst time can be discarded. The other four runs are added together. The competitor with the fastest overall time for the match wins, simple!
