Glock Becomes VIP Sponsor of SHOT Show All-Star Jam Concert


LAS VEGAS — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is thrilled to announce that Glock has signed on as a VIP sponsor of the 2023 SHOT Show’s All-Star Jam—a free, private concert for all SHOT Show® attendees featuring some of the most notable names in rock and country music.

Presented by Outdoor Sportsman Group, the concert will feature Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Johnny Van Zant, Montgomery Gentry’s Eddie Montgomery and a special surprise guest to be named later. It will take place Jan. 18 outside Caesars Forum, next to the SHOT Show’s Great Outdoors Plaza.

“To have an industry icon like Glock on board for the All-Star Jam concert is something we at NSSF and everyone at the SHOT Show can greatly appreciate,” said Chris Dolnack, NSSF Senior Vice President and Chief Customer Officer. “This concert is going to be an awesome new addition to the SHOT Show experience, and we can’t thank Glock enough for its outstanding support.”

“GLOCK is committed to supporting the efforts of NSSF and SHOT Show to grow and strengthen the industry. It is only fitting that this support extends to this exciting new event,” said Josh Dorsey, Vice President of GLOCK. “We look forward to a great event and connecting with those in our industry.”

Part of a new series of events called “SHOT After Dark,” the concert will be on Wednesday evening right after show hours. Tuesday evening will feature an Industry Welcome Reception happy hour, and a Networking Reception will be held on Thursday evening, both being held out on the Caesars Plaza.

For three decades, Johnny Van Zant has carried on the legacy of his late brother, Ronnie Van Zant, as the lead singer of legendary rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd and one half of duo Van Zant alongside his brother, Donnie Van Zant of .38 Special.

Eddie Montgomery of Montgomery Gentry recently released “Outskirts,” a seven-song EP. With 20-plus charted singles, the Kentucky native has earned CMA, ACM and GRAMMY awards and nominations with undeniable blue-collar anthems.

More details, and the name of the All-Star Jam surprise guest, will be shared in the coming weeks.
