NEW TARGETS AND OTHER ITEMS ARE NOW AVAILABLE! CLICK THE PRODUCTS PAGE!
August 19, 2010
We recently returned from a very productive trip to Germany, and we would like to provide a quick update.
We were able to establish new relationships with several companies and expand our association with others:
MEYTON is one of the major electronic target companies, and we are proud to announce that Gold Medal Shooting, LLC (GMS) is now their representative in the USA!
During our trip, we spent several days at the MEYTON facility going through hands-on training on both their hardware and software. In addition, we participated in the finishing touches of the newest version of their system. This version was announced at the recently concluded ISSF World Championship in Munich.
As you may know, the MEYTON system uses a "light curtain" instead of acoustical microphones. And, it is the only system that guarantees scoring accuracy within 0.01mm. In addition, there are no rolls of paper required, so the on-going operating costs are minimal.
The timeline for availability of the most recent version, which allows for custom target designs including targets used in the USA, is roughly November 2010. Contact us for more information and a quote!
2. MAHA GmbH
MAHA is a well-established company offering top-quality target carriers, target systems, and related products. We are happy to serve as their USA representative, and we are certain that American customers will be impressed with the quality they build into each and every product.
You may notice that their products are designed to support ISSF events at typical metric distances, but they have indicated that they are open to modifications that will allow their products to be used at distances found at USA ranges, e.g. 50 feet, etc. If you have target carrier and system requirements, let us know. We would like to work those requirements through MAHA and find a solution that meets your expectations.
Sauer is already well-known in the USA, and we are looking forward to giving our customers another alternative when shopping for their products. Let us know what you need, and we will get a quote for you.
Our relationship with Krüger has been fantastic, and after visiting with their staff and touring their production facility, we are announcing a major expansion to our inventory with their world-famous ISSF-approved targets. We have a large quantity of targets arriving in September, and among them are most of the metric distance targets that we have not had in stock previously.
In addition, the most often requested target by our customers is finally on the way: USA Shooting's 12 bull air rifle target! Most of you are aware of the performance of Krüger's air rifle and air pistol targets. Now, the same level of performance will be available to you via the 12 bull air rifle target that is used by so many Junior Rifle clubs in the USA. We are excited to add this target to our inventory, and we hope you will give it a try soon.
The Orion Scoring System (OSS) is a widely-known scoring system that is already in use at many clubs in the USA. Both the accuracy and speed of this scoring system make running a match a snap, and the system is truly unique in terms of capability.
Some of you may have noticed that their proprietary targets are made by Krüger, and we have established a relationship with OSS to serve as their source for re-stocking sales of their targets! In addition, we are licensed to sell the Orion Scoring System software. Not only can you purchase OSS software through GMS, when you exhaust your initial supply of targets, GMS will have OSS targets in stock.
Finally, we would like to thank each of you for your support. Gold Medal Shooting, LLC continues to grow during these challenging economic times, and we look forward to providing more high quality products and first-class service to each of you in the future.
Thanks again, and we hope to hear from you soon!
Stan and Lisa Pace
