ICORE was founded in 1991 by Mike and Sharon Higashi with a vision of revolver-only competitions where "even the most basic equipment could be used and still provide enjoyment and satisfaction."<ref name="AboutICORE">[http://www.icore.org/About_ICORE.phtml ICORE.org - History and Information]</ref>
The sport has elements from the [[Bianchi Cup]], [[International Practical Shooting Confederation|IPSC]], and the [[Steel Challenge]], and has active members in Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, [[Malta]] and United States.<ref name="AboutICORE"/>
