Women and Guns Data
wshootingjournal ^ | 3/5/2015

Everyone knows that women and guns have been on the rise during these last 4-5 years.
Pink and Leopard print guns have made its way into the marketplace and manufacturers
have been catering to the women industry.

There has been some interesting findings in what women really want in terms of why and
which type of firearms they really own in the recent NSSF (National Shooting Sports Foundation) report.

-Guess which type of gun is the most favored with women.
-Guess what percentage of women actually own those Pink print guns.
-What percentage of women want a gun because it's badass to have?(not trying to give away the spoiler)

See the summary women and data reports here.

I asked my 25 year old sister if she waned an AR with pink furniture and the answer was yes to the AR, no to the pink.

Took the My Utah Permit class last night and out of 12 people in attendance 5 were women!

The instructor who works at the local gun store says that the increase is in women and guns is a large percentage of his sales and interest in several types of classes offered. Fun and education was had by all. 🔫

I have a great website for women’s holsters and great looking CC purses (not the ugly looking contraptions most of us are used to). Make it pretty for the girly-girls and we will spend.

However, there is nothing girly about my favorite gun. It is all business.

Send me the link or what ever the rules are here.

I saw a nifty one last night that was a purse insert type that if you happen to own several purses that it fits in most and has a separate compartment for your gun.

I guess purses are like shoes and women need many…LOL

By the way I do not carry a purse but know several women who do and when it comes to concealed carry holster options are your best friend.

I know one lassy that has a lever action rifle, a semi auto pistol, and a collectible SandW Model 15 with a nickel finish!
