GSSF
Glock Sport Shooting Foundation
Glock Inc, is the ONLY handgun manufacturer that has organzied a whole new shooting sport for their customers. GSSF hosts
over 30+ outdoor matches all over the United States, as well as League matches at Indoor ranges. These matches are based
on stock Glocks, so you don't need to pour $$$ into a super race gun. Yes there is a category for modified Glocks if
that is your cup of tea. The matches are family oriented and simple. There is no drawing, no speed reloads, no movement, very
little memory work, no fancy equipment. It is easy enough that anyone can shoot it, yet challenging enough for the greatest
Master Glock shooters in the US.
For Nebraskans, GSSF has a match in Grand Island every June, which sort of kicks off all of the other matches throughout
the midwestern states. In July, GSSF is in St Paul MN, August they are in Greeley, CO and September in Hallville MO. Currently
an Indoor match series is in the works for January, February and March at the Thunder Alley Indoor range in Lincoln. (Stay
Tuned for Details). Glock gives away pistols, cash and other prizes at these matches.
