USPSA Prefix

[70116]

I just joined USPSA in anticipation of starting to shoot matches this fall. I was assigned a number that begins with "A". I've noticed that a number of members on BS have USPSA numbers that begin with "TY" and I was wondering what, if any, significance or meaning the different prefixes have.

A= annual
TY= Three year
FY= Five year
L= Life

What he said.

There are others but the ones scooter posted are the main ones.

Thanks for the quick answer

Scooter,

You are correct sir.

 

[scooterj]

Scooter,

You are correct sir.

Partially, there's
Foreign, Foreign Life, Benefactor, Foreign Benefactor and maybe one or two more.

Can the prefix potentially change, with purchase of different membership, or does it always reflect your initial membership status?

 

[mike45]

Will change if you upgrade or down grade. The number stays the same but the prefix can change.

 

[spanky]

It changes with the renewal.

Mine was A then went to FY.

 

[bayoupirate]

Yes, Prefix changes if you change your status.
Number Remains the same.

If you upgrade to "Life" you can choose any unused number.
