Did you see the news about women shooters?

Both channel 6 and channel 13 had news stories tonight about women buying guns. Numbers of women gun users is up. What do you think the reason is?

In their own words, personal protection. Which I find very accurate.

Thanx I had not seen that thread.

Thanks I didn't see that thread either! It's up cause chiks are finally seeing that it's perfectly legal to NOT have crime happen to them by use of deadly force if need be!

I wish more women would understand that they dont need their husband, boyfriend, or the police to protect them from all the bad people out there.
An armed woman is a truelly free woman.

Guns are freakin awesome might be the reason.

My girlfriend is glad I carry, but she would rather bring me around everywhere than have to worry about where and when it is and isn't legal to carry and when it is and isn't legal to shoot, and training and remaining proficiency with a firearm. I think "my" next gun is going to be the one that fits her hand the best (M&P 9c), so that I can take her to NRA training courses and bring her to the range with me, and separate the carry issue from the gun issue, and let her warm up to it on her own. She is still overcoming the fear ingrained in her as a kid when her brothers and dad thought it would be fun to not instruct or warn her, and have the 12 gauge shotgun knock her over.

My g/f is getting her first gun fairly soon as she had a major wakeup call a few weeks ago. I get to help her choose and it's looking like either a S&W 38 or the new lightweight Ruger 38.
