The International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) is an organization that governs international shooting sports (but not archery). It is a member of the International Olympic Committee and so it is in charge of the Olympic shooting events. But, not all ISSF shooting events are Olympic. The organization, with 154 national member federations, has its headquarters in Munich, Germany.
There was no governing body for shooting sport until 1907, when eight national federations founded the union, and soon to be called Union International de Tir (UIT) (French for the International Shooting Union and sometimes referred to in English as the ISU). This was the name until the current name was adapted in 1998.
