The GGGGC Team hopes everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving! There is so much to be grateful for-freedom to celebrate with family, eat festive meals or just do nothing at all, during this glorious holiday season. We have added several Conceal Carry Weapon Classes this month, so Members can meet their goal of obtaining their license before the end of 2023. We have also added a boatload of Range Visits (See bottom of website for dates.) Schedule yours now!
Next month, we will host a December Shooting Challenge amongst GGGGC Members. Our Members are very competitive and have shown great improvement. Members are encouraged to get a Range Visit Bundle to use as practice sessions: We are currently running Members thru potential Challenge Drills and they are quite surprised at what they can accomplish. The drills are simple and easy to accomplish. Women are quite capable at any activity, including shooting development.
FYI: We now have Coed Combo Classes (Intro to The Fundamentals & CCW Classes) for both Members & Non-Members. Contact us: (314) 279-1657/(314) 973-8879.

My name is Mary E. Edwards-Fears, CEO & Co-Owner of Girls Getta Grip Gun Club. I retired as a decorated Police Captain, and Co-Owner Michael P. Fears retired as a Police Lieutenant, both as Members St. Louis Metro Police Dept. During my police career, I did safety programs for Girls Scout groups, and facilitated range visits for Church groups & Educators on my off days. This is why we at Girls Getta Grip Gun Club have made women's safety our business.
My Team and I are extremely proud to report that we have spent the past four (4) years training over four hundred (400) women and men on firearms safety. Many of them enter our doors in possession of their Conceal Carry Weapon License (CCW). But any reputable Trainer will tell you that an 8-hour CCW License Class is no place to learn firearm fundamentals or how to shoot. GGGGC requires everyone to attend Intro to the Fundamentals of Firearms & Firearms Safety Course before attending CCW Class.
Active GGGGC Members can sponsor family Members for training at a discount rate. We now offer training to Non-Members, but not at discount rates.

Women, if you live in a town that allows Conceal Carry Weapon Licenses, you are strongly encouraged to get one. It proves to the authorities that you are a serious and responsible gun owner. If you ever are involved a violent encounter wherein you are forced to defend yourself, a CCW License, and any subsequent firearms safety training
Women, if you live in a town that allows Conceal Carry Weapon Licenses, you are strongly encouraged to get one. It proves to the authorities that you are a serious and responsible gun owner. If you ever are involved a violent encounter wherein you are forced to defend yourself, a CCW License, and any subsequent firearms safety training will improve your chances for a positive outcome with the authorities.
Also be aware that GGGGC has a mandatory firearms safety class that everyone must take: Over eighty (80) Members have come to GGGGC after taking their CCW License training elsewhere. Per our policy, they are still required to attend the 'Introduction to the Fundamentals of Firearms and Firearms Safety Course' (IFFFS). In the IFFFS, you learn firearm safety and how to shoot, an in-depth education not found in most CCW License Classes. The learning is intense and considering the stakes (personal safety), it is well worth the time and money. We encourage Members, "Don't do it for the permit. Do it for the education."
Our 2nd Amendment Rights entitle us to protect ourselves from being seriously injured or killed. We provide an in-depth education on what that could look and feel like. We are not lawyers but we are constantly reaching out to local legal experts and partners, seeking clarity on gun laws. We will also invite legitimate legal protection entities to our site in the future, to offer legal representation to GGGGC Members.

GGGGC's first Youth Firearms Safety Awareness Program (Part I & II) last month was awesome! We thank the Martin and Carter families for participating and for having such teachable students. The youngsters asked a 'ton' of questions which the GGGGC Staff was only too happy to answer. Part I is classroom (free) and Part II involves a Range Visit ($50). That fee is for the youth only. Adult(s) is additional.
We will attempt to host a 2nd session (YFSAP) during the month of December. We plan to continue this training due to the staggering research provided by our partners at the Missouri Foundation for Health, Missouri. Their studies show that there are approximately 131 deaths of children and teens each year. These deaths are largely attributed to suicides or homicides. GGGGC plans to do our part by educating our youths, and removing the stigma and mystery of having a firearm in the home. GGGGC places a huge emphasis on securing firearms with the parents. There are Gun Lock Boxes and Gun Safes on site.
The YFSAP has two groups: Group I - Ages 7-12 yoa and Group II - Ages 13-19 yoa. Part I of the training is free and focuses on classroom fundamentals training only; Part II includes a Range Visit ($50). Range Visits are all-inclusive (include a Certified Instructor, Range Fee, Firearm, Ammunition, Target, Eye & Eye Protection, and Shuttle Van Transportation. Note: Additional cost for Adult Range Visit participation.
