This Glock match in Dallas, the 30th edition, is scheduled for the weekend of October 26th and 27th, 2024 at Dallas Pistol Club. It is the longest running GSSF match in Texas and the biggest, too! We are excited for everyone to see the many upgrades made at our club over the last year. In 2022, a record 32 guns were awarded with 24 to competitors (for performance, for 1st time shooters, and at random) and 8 more presented to our volunteers (based on a drawing where working more 4-hour shifts improves your odds). Note: The DPC GSSF Match Directors and DPC Board of Directors are NOT eligible to win the volunteer raffle. This two-day GLOCK Sport Shooting Foundation (GSSF®) event brings participants from all over Texas and beyond. New, intermediate, and experienced shooters are welcomed, with special prize categories for women, juniors, seniors, high seniors, challenged (physically handicapped), and law enforcement (Guardian) competitors.
For First Timers:
For those of you that are new to GSSF matches, be aware this is a “come and go” competition and is all shot from low-ready. It is an excellent first match for new shooters and very welcoming. You can register and shoot one gun, then be done in as little as 2 hours. Come out, see our largest match of the year in action, and enjoy the friendly environment one morning or afternoon!
And be aware a Glock Factory Armorer will be on hand to quickly diagnose any gun issues and get them repaired with any necessary parts at no charge.
