Piru is located in So Cal, outside of Los Angeles. I'm sure someone will chime in with matches closer to your area, but you are welcome to join us if you are willing to travel.
About your gear, start with what you have. You'll just need to get a few more mags for now. Figure about enough to shoot 60rds per stage.
Once you get to your first match, you'll start to see what others use and where you would like to start spending your money. I would suggest doing so slowly and upgrading when you feel it is necessary to improve your skill and gaming.
I started off using a pump Winchester 1300 and a Dissapator AR with iron sights; and I had a blast.
Good luck. You can PM me with questions if you like.
