Remember the Alamo Ballistic Challenge XXI

In less than a month the Blackhawk Shooting Complex will proudly sponsor the GSSF Remember the Alamo Ballistic Challenge XXI, hosted by the River City Shooters Club!!

“The GLOCK Sport Shooting Foundation is a safe, fun, family-oriented organization devoted to the responsible use of GLOCK firearms and encouraging participation in the shooting sports. Competitions, across the United States, provide opportunities for shooters of all skill levels and experience to compete together in simple, but challenging courses of fire. GSSF does not require the expensive equipment and extensive training often demanded by most other types of firearms competitions.

Started in 1991, GSSF has grown to include almost 100,000 members and now organizes more than 40 outdoor and over 210 indoor shooting matches each year—an unprecedented number. Almost anyone can join GSSF, but if you want to participate in a sanctioned sport shooting match, the only requirement is that you must compete with a GLOCK pistol. The only other requirement is that all of our competitors have fun! So we make that more of a “sure thing” by rewarding cash prizes, and GLOCK pistols, in multiple categories.

There are usually only two facial expressions observed at every match—aiming and smiling. Bring the whole family out to just one GSSF competition and you’re all likely to leave hooked!”

The PractiScore beta match score isn’t available on Practiscore yet, but it will be very soon. EASS is all about “grace under pressure,” and yesterday, no one was faster than Forrest Scott McCord!! Congratulations, Forrest, and all the test match winners – especially the Finalists – when this match goes LIVE with the Money Cup in November those people are taking home CASH prizes, so don’t forget to like their page and stay up to the minute on this new and exciting sport as well as match news and registration!!

Whew, what a weekend!! We’re genuinely overwhelmed with praise for the 2nd Annual River City Shootout by MGM, and have thoroughly enjoyed all the videos and photos shared by our competitors. We put a lot of love into this match, and to know that everyone had such a great time made everything worth it!! YOU ALL are why we’re here – THANK YOU!! We are literally still catching our collective breaths, and digesting all of the constructive comments on how to make this match even better next year – and you can bet there’s going to be a next year!! We have some amazing match sponsors and we can’t thank them enough for all they have done to promote the Shootout and encourage match participation through their generous donations: MGM, Walther, Lone Star Innovations, Akai Custom Guns, On Your 6 Designs, Backwater Shooters, EMG Customs, Alamo Tactical (if you didn’t take your picture with or lay hands on that STI you were the only one). Monarch Trophy should be mentioned as well, they didn’t donate the trophies, but they bent over backwards to help RCSC shine with beautiful awards and break-neck turn around. Last but not least, Shiseido!! The ladies were out en force covering the shooters with skin care on Saturday, and left a generous package for the Shootout raffle. The shooters loved and needed their product all weekend though, so instead of raffling to some we made sunscreen available to all and it was a welcome treat. Thank you all again, for everything!!

NOW AWARDS!! If you haven’t already heard, please check out the list of trophy and raffle winners!! We couldn’t have wished for a more worthy bunch of recipients. To all the trophy winners, CONGRATULATIONS!! You all turned in a top-notch effort and it paid off. To all the raffle winners, CONGRATULATIONS!! We appreciate you in so many ways, and are grateful to be able to provide, on behalf of the sponsors, prizes to show our appreciation for your support of the Shootout!! If you weren’t present to collect your award, we are holding it and will be reaching out to you to make arrangements to see that you get your prize, via the e-mail address you provided at registration.
