Just so it's clear, you don't have to have a Hi-Capa to participate in CAPS. There are plenty of guys running Glocks, Sig's, PX4's... even revolvers. We also do two gun and three gun scenarios involving transitions to and from carbine, pistol, shotgun and bolt action.

If you have a Black Badge, and you are looking at CAPS as a training source, then that's your prerogative to run a course of fire as you would run an IPSC course. Or if IDPA is your discipline, then you can follow that. It's all up to you. You would be scored against your peers. Likewise, the guys running full tactical rigs, or the concealed carry guys will be scored against their own peers, even if we're all running the same course of fire. Ultimately, when you're on the line, and fighting the clock, the only person you are competing against, is yourself.

The courses of fire are putting in to action, the techniques you have drilled. It's when we take the 100 draw drills a day, 100 sight acquisition drills a day, and 100 transition drills a day, and combine it all together to run a scored course against the clock.

In the past, we operated with a fairly strict guideline on everything from gear, to operation and the guns themselves, but we have moved away from this to open it up to a wider audience.
