STL Shooting Enthusiasts started in 2017 and today its goal continues to be bringing shooters from around the Mid-West together at any variety of sporting events to include; USPSA, IDPA, Steel Matches, 3-Gun and more. I also wanted the website to be a way to promote local gun shops and gunsmiths who were credible and responsive to the consumer, so people would have some basis on where to turn when seeking unique parts, repairs, or advice. By 2019 STL Shooting Enthusiasts moved a majority of its services off Facebook and onto its own website: https://stlshootingenthusiasts.wordpress.com. This allows us to expand the services, while supporting our growing community. To date, STL Shooting Enthusiasts now features almost 20 dedicated venues and vendors that offer matches and/or services through a majority of the year - from the novice to the pro.
