She shares her story worldwide to help others avoid the pitfalls of socialism and gun control. Gabby is the first female shooter to represent Venezuela in the Olympics. She has over 30 years of experience in Olympic, tactical, and practical shooting, knowledge she uses as a firearms instructor nationwide. Gabby published her first shooting manual TroubleShootnig: Mastering your pistol marksmanship, in 2013.

2A Sponsor Spotlight: CrossRoads
2A Sponsor Spotlight: CrossRoads
Iowa Firearms Coalition presents this Sponsor Spotlight and welcomes CrossRoads Shooting Sports as a Sponsor of IFC’s Annual 2A Day. These events wouldn’t be possible without key sponsors to help us provide speakers and infrastructure to put on an informative and vital day for Iowans each year at the Capitol.
CrossRoads Shooting Sports has long-recognized the value of supporting the Iowa Firearms Coalition for our business and our customers. Before we opened our doors in 2015, we became Lifetime Members of IFC and have pursued this relationship since. IFC provides a uniquely effective mechanism to connect gun owners locally, and across the state. IFC has a proven track record in driving issues of importance and protecting the interests of gun enthusiasts in all four corners of the state — for hunters, competitors and those training for self-defense. We are excited to be a Sponsor for IFC at this year’s 2A Lobby Day!
