My name is John VanZyck. Shooting and gun collecting has been a hobby and passion of mine ever since my dad gave me my first .22 back when I was ten or so. We spent many a weekend in the Everglades target shooting and telling stories of how his dad did the same with him. I am now an avid hunter in Northern Florida as well as a regular at the Tallahassee Rifle & Pistol Club outdoor range. You’ll find me participating in numerous events throughout the year which include NRA Action Pistol, USPSA matches, Glock matches (only when they bug me enough), High Power, and CMP matches. I love it all! Something about that smell of gunpowder just does it for me.

At the 2008 SHOT show I was elected to the Board of Directors of the "Louder Than Words" organization. It's a great bunch of guys (only America's finest pistol smiths and other gun talents) that has fun getting together to give back. We put together yearly raffles of custom guns and accessories and give all the proceeds to selected charities. It's an honor to be affiliated with this tremendous group of talent. Please take the time to check us out.
