Beginning
Working as a blue collar employee in the machine trade, Dave began recreational pistol shooting in his early 20’s. The time on the range with a commitment to be the best would lead to a change in his career path. During his first two seasons in competition, Dave demonstrated his high level of skill, advancing to become one of the most accomplished and respected handgun shooters in the world.
Armed only with target shooting experience and a .40 caliber carry pistol, Dave competed in his first few handgun matches in 1997-1998. In 1999, he began practical shooting sports competition in IDPA and USPSA with production pistols. Using his explosive movement and rising skill, Dave had immediate success at the highest level of competitive shooting. Within his first three years, Dave won several major championships including the prestigious IDPA Indoor Nationals, IDPA Nationals, USPSA National Championship, Steel Challenge World Championship and IPSC World Shoot.
Depth and Consistency
Following 24 illustrious seasons spanning 1999-2024, Dave has accumulated 250+ major championships in seven different action handgun shooting sports: International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA), International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC), NRA Action Pistol (including Bianchi Cup), Pro-Am Shooting & speed steel, Steel Challenge Shooting Association, Tactical Shooting Association and United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA).
Dave is a five-division USPSA Grand Master class competitor who has won major championships in Production, Limited, L-10, Single-Stack and Open division.
In the United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) Dave is a 13-Time National Champion in Production (6x), Limited-10 (4x), Limited (2x) and Single Stack divisions.
In International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC) World Shoot competition, Dave competed in three events making it to the podium each time. He has won individual Gold, Silver and Bronze medals along with a team Gold and two Silver medals in Production and Standard divisions. Dave scored three IPSC National wins and several prestigious international contests, including the Pan-American Championship. A mentally tough performer when the stakes are high, Dave’s career stats in the top matches speak for themselves: In IPSC/USPSA Level V (World) and IV (National) tournaments he has accumulated 18 wins, with multiple 2nd’s and 3rd’s.
In precision action pistol shooting, Dave has scored wins at both the Bianchi Cup and NRA World Action Pistol Championships in Production division, including a perfect 48-48 score on the “Plates” at a Bianchi Cup and NRA World match in the same year.
In defensive pistol shooting sports, Dave won 9 IDPA Nationals, finishing 2nd in two other contests. Dave’s 2nd place finish at his debut IDPA Nationals was by a narrow .76 sec margin; he would come back the following year for a decisive overall win. At the technical Light & Laser Invitational, Dave won this prestigious low-light, defensive style match against a field of other skilled contenders with world recognition. At the Tactical Shooting Association inaugural, Dave won both Compact and Full-Size Pistol divisions.
In speed steel competition, Dave has 27 wins in Steel Challenge World and National level tournaments to include rimfire, iron-sight centerfire and Steel Master divisions with both iron sights and red-dot pistols. In the exciting, Pro-Am national level tournaments, Dave has won five-times, including back-to-back Open and Limited division wins two consecutive years.
Today-Still Driven To Succeed
During an abbreviated 2024 season, Dave won the USPSA Area 6 Championship in Single Stack and a 2nd Overall at the USPSA Single Stack Nationals. In 2021, Dave added a 3rd all-time Steel Master division, a three pistol aggregate of open rimfire, iron-sight centerfire and open centerfire pistol with a personal best 81.81 second score, at the World Speed Shooting Championship. In 2020, Dave returned to Steel Challenge, following no competition activity the previous year, winning three championships including another Steel Challenge iron-sight world championship.
2024 marked the 20th Anniversary for Sevigny Performance, LLC where hundreds have trained with Dave and thousands have enjoyed the benefits of installing Sevigny sights on their pistols.
