You’ve liked GLOCK’s Facebook page, followed GLOCK’s tweets loyally and subscribed to GLOCK’s YouTube channel, so why not take it to the next level with GLOCK I.D.? Die-hard GLOCK fans now have another way to connect online.
The GLOCK I.D. (GID) community offers members numerous ways to contribute and engage with GLOCK and other GLOCK enthusiasts. Membership is free; just sign up by creating a username and password, and you will gain access to everything from training videos and member Q&As to an online record that’ll help you keep track of your range time.
The “My GLOCK Safe” feature helps you keep track of all your personal stats—as much or as little as you want to share. You select the models you own to put in your “safe.” After your range sessions, go online, plug in your round count for each pistol and upload a photo of your target. You can also create a shareable wish list of the models you want next. Part of the website is like a virtual logbook, allowing you to store your range session stats so you can see just how much you have improved over time or what you need to focus on during your next training session. After all, practice makes perfect.
Earning Points
One of the really cool features of GID is the ability to earn points in order to level up. Earning points is easy, and you can earn special patches for specific milestones. If you log in your stats from your last range session, you’ll earn points. If you watch a training video, you’ll earn points. The videos are as helpful to new shooters and experienced shooters alike. You’ll get tips from Team GLOCK, find out the proper way to field-strip and clean your GLOCK, and even learn the exact areas on your pistol that need lube for optimum reliability. Want to know more about concealed carry? Are you new gun owner? GLOCK has numerous videos that are engaging and extremely helpful. The videos are also fun to watch, and The Gunny appears in several of them.
