G.I.D. Challenge: The History.....
The Glock GID Challenge is a monthly, informal shooting challenge for GID members that has been offered every month since it's inception January 2015. The Challenge has several general goals: to help members improve their overall shooting skills; to provide an informal introduction into competition shooting events such as GSSF matches, particularly for those members who live in areas where attending a GSSF match would be difficult; and to "challenge" a member's shooting skills by having scenarios, such as using your non-dominant hand, or shooting at a distance that you would normally not shoot at, presented in the Challenges. Naturally there are some limitations to the Challenge, the chief among which is all shooting is done using the "honor system", so cheat if you must, no-one will know but you (and Karma).
The GID Challenge is member driven. Conceived of, designed by, and administered solely through GID members, the GID Challenge is a bit unique and somehow seems to provide a sense of "group" that is seldom found on global websites. Glock, Inc. has been a staunch supporter of the GID Challenge since its inception, and has provided many Glock branded items which are distributed to the members via monthly prizes, awarded both for top finishers and also in random prize drawings.
A very special thank you to DankeGlock. The Challenge was his idea, he thought it up, got the go ahead from Glock Inc., and took it upon himself to bring it to the site beginning January, 2015. He administered the Challenge for 6 months, at which time ringster took over (with assistance from DankeGlock). Many members have helped along the way with things like ideas, statistics, and targets as the GID Challenge slowly but steadily grew.

In December of 2015 Glock created 2 permanent categories for the Challenge on the Answer page. The categories are "GID Challenge Entries" and "GID Challenge Winners". The addition of these 2 categories makes it easier for members to keep track of the current months challenge as well as past months challenges.
Glock created a special patch for all those that participate in the official GID Challenge. You only get the patch once no matter how may times you participate. Patches are awarded to members that submit an official entry for the monthly challenge that adheres to the rules for that months challenge. Once the entry has been submitted they are reviewed by an actual GID employee and then the patch is awarded to the member. It can take several days for this to happen so please do not expect to see the patch pop up on your profile right after you submit your entry.
