I heard they had about 340, a huge turnout! I got there Sunday morning at 8:45, and there were 20+ people waiting to sign up or check in. By 9:15 there were 5-10 people on each bay with most shooting more than one division. The exception was the plates, funny how people don't like to start there.
Funny how some people won't bring their teenage daughter to a GSSF match, but then I wouldn't want to see how close she is to catching up to me, might make me feel a little older.. :-)
I'd throw my 2 cents in and say get a G22, more of a versitle gun, you can use if for USPSA and IDPA along with GSSF, heck, we'll even let you bring it and shoot our ICORE matches at Richmond with it (no more than 8 rounds in the gun though)
