Our club has not shut down and has had matches last year and in 2021.

People need to remember that there is a huge difference between tactical training and competition shooting. They are two different things. You can improve gun handling skills greatly shooting competition. You also get what Massad Ayoob called "stress innoculation". This is having to perform under conditions that cause stress, time constraints, cover requirements, movement requirements.

For IDPA, the gun I shoot the most is an 9mm 5906 IPDA model. but also shoot a 40 S&W Berretta 96, 45 GAP Glock 37, 45 ACP Colt 1911, and 10mm Colt Delta.

Agreed, quality trigger time with a side of pressure in competition will improve ones gun handling skills. And its fun. Not trying to be an operator or a tactical (tacticool) Joe. Just enjoy shooting.
