There were a few girls with (toy) guns at Dragoncon. A few photos are in this gallery of mine.

I’m jealous. When my dad found out I’d bought my first gun, he started telling every story he could remember, find, or make up about kids coming in the house and shooting themselves.

There was an article in Backwoods Home Magazine with some suggestions about finding the right gun to fit smaller hands, including some “regular guns” that just happen to fit well: http://backwoodshome.com/articles2/ayoob131.html

Here’s a good documentary about Israeli girls going through basic training. My daughter loves it.

From the video explanation:

the director returns to the place where, for the first time, she fell in love with a woman – her commanding officer

Sorry, but it's a lesbian indoctrination video........watch it again....

he doesn’t understand that our smaller hands really do make it more difficult to handle a handgun.

A lot of guys don't get that. They also often don't get that a too-large caliber can actually injure people with smaller hands and arms. But every hand is different. Has your daughter tried the Lady Smith?

It would probably get a fair amount of Youtube (ad) traffic.

That crap is a small part of the whole thing. The fascinating part is the actual training. It’s tough on these girls.

The one thing that made me shudder was the D*R*A*M*A. I was having flashbacks to my freshman year in college. Girls crying and refusing to say what was wrong. Girls giving the silent treatment. Girls pouting for freaking days over silly issues. Honestly, I don’t know why men put up with it all. (Or why a mature, older man would be interested in such a creature.)

And the drill sergeant just looked patient and very tired throughout the whole thing. I don’t know how she kept her cool.

But, in the end, the girls pushed themselves harder than they ever knew they could and came out better for it.

The contrast between that and what an all-male boot camp is like is dramatic. Makes me even more sure that we should segregate the sexes in the military.

And it made me appreciate being in my 40’s! :-)

That looks like the Marriott in Atlanta where I stayed this past con. I was on the 46th floor. Nice and quiet.

Girls firing full auto should be allowed to wear whatever they’re comfortable in, and bikinis are certainly preferable.

But they should darn sure be required at all times to wear HEARING PROTECTION!

That gal on the minigun - if that’s a for real pic, she could go deaf very quickly.

My wife and daughters could do Girls with Guns calendar.

My wife has been approached by local scouts for Playboy 40s issue..lol...yeah right...flattering but not with all our boys

My 11 year old would be in fights every day at Middle School and he’s fisticuff prone enough already
