The history of Diablo Action Pistol (DAP) goes back to approximately 1988 when the by-laws of Diablo Action Pistol were adopted by its founding members. The group was established through the sponsorship of the Diablo Rod & Gun Club which is one of the five member clubs forming the United Sportsmen, Incorporated (USI). In order to join and participate in DAP, one must first be a member of one of the five USI Clubs and then apply to DAP.
