Moving to Alexandria

I have a job offer and will move to VA near the Alexandria area at the beginning of August. I have been an active shooter and shot High Power in the early 1990's, and lately IPSC. Currently I'm a member of the NRA and USPA, and recently a member of FCSA.
I don't know what IPSC matches near the Washington DC area are like, but judging by the DC gun laws, I would not be surprised if there were noone in the area who shot IPSC.

Anyway, I plan to join VCDL and hope what happened to us in CA doesn't happen in VA or other parts of the US.

I believe Silver Eagle did have some USPSA matches, but I don't know any more since their management has been quite a bit flakey regarding matches. But both Silver Eagle and Blue Ridge Arsenal have IDPA matches.

Thanks everyone for the welcome. I looked at the USPSA's web page for clubs near the Alexandria area and they listed one which is a commercial training outfit. I guess I'll do a more thorough search when I get out there in August.
