Goddard Gun Club

Goddard Space Flight Center

Greenbelt, Maryland

GGC History and Purpose

The Goddard Gun Club was formed at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland in 1967 to provide an organization for NASA employees and contractors who enjoy firearms. In 1973 the Club was successful in establishing a firing range on the east side of the GSFC campus. Although the range was closed by Center Management in 2001, the Club continues to promote a variety of activities centered around the safe and legal use of firearms.

Club Federal Firearms License (FFL) Status

In October 2006, GSFC denied the club permission to hold a Federal Firearms License (FFL). This means the Club no longer has an FFL.

The Club has made arrangements with local Firearms stores to handle legal purchases of firearms and firearms related materials requiring an FFL. Additional information will be posted here soon detailing the process.

GGC On-Site Range

In May 2008 the Club's on-site range at GSFC was demolished as part of the reconstruction effort on the east campus at GSFC. The range was originally shutdown by the then GSFC Center Director in the spring of 2001.
