Taurus "The Curve"
In what could be the most unique or dumb thing to be made in awhile, Taurus announced that they are releasing a concealment oriented .380 acp pistol that is curved to fit owners body contour. It is for right handed person and there is no indication when left handed version will be available.
The Curve also has lights and lasers in the frame as a factory default which is needed since there are no front and rear sights. At least it will be snag free.

Peruta intervention overturned
The 9th Circuit court struck down attempted intervention of the CA DOJ to take over Peruta v Gore. The case challenged requirement for 'good cause' in California's CCW application, and the 9th Circuit court ruled such requiments were against the law.
CA State Attorney Harris tried to intervene on behalf of Sheriff Gore, but the court said that can't happen.
This means Peruta stands and any area where under the 9th Circuit court cannot require 'good cause'

IDPA rule changes
IDPA sent out email with several imporatnat changes to the rule.
First is dropping 'Flat foot reload'. When the new rule came out in 2013, the only time competitor can reload was when both of his feet were flat on the ground. This created quite a bit of discontent since it is possible and tactically useful to reload while on the move. Starting with the next rule book, this will change.
Also, IDPA will introduce a new division that will allow optics/RDS(Red Dot Sights). There has been some interest in using RDS for the game and this seems to be a step towards it.
Third, 2015 World Championship is moving from Puerto Rico to Tulsa.
