ACCOKEEK, MD –-(Ammoland.com)- Team Benelli 3-Gunner and reigning 3-Gun Nation (3GN) Champion, Keith Garcia held off a solid challenge by Greg Jordan and fellow Team Benelli member, Taran Butler, to win his second 3GN Pro Series match in two years.

Winning four of the matchโ€™s six stages, including the finale, Garcia outpaced Jordan by approximately three-and-a-half seconds.

Garcia led the final 3GN Pro Series match wire-to-wire to win $5,000 in prize money. Butler took two stages and finished third for the third time this season, earning a $2,000 payday.

Garciaโ€™s background and experience as a 20-year California police officer veteran has served him well in competitive shooting.

“There is no doubt my Law enforcement training provided me with a solid base,” said Garcia. “But I was introduced to competitive shooting by a fellow SWAT Team member and that is really what made me the shooter I am today.”

The 3-Gun Nation Pro Series is the first of its kind, featuring top shooters who all compete in the same divisionโ€”Tactical Opticsโ€”in a heads-up points race to qualify for the season-ending finale held in Las Vegas in January 2014. The final match will feature the top 30 qualified shooters from the series who will compete in man-on-man shoot-offs in a seeded bracket to determine the final winner. The 2013-2014 3-Gun Nation Champion will receive $50,000 in prize money. Other Team Benelli shooters who qualified for the Shoot-Off in Las Vegas, include Taran Butler and Ben Fortin.
