Better shot of some of my weapons (roughly 1/5 of my collection):
I think I just swooned and soaked my panties...0 -

Too bad .44mag costs so much to shoot these days

Marine Corps Sharpshooter here with both the M16A2 & M9. It's F-ing therapeutic and anyone who doesn't like it can kiss my *kitten*. The smell of CLP and the feeling of recoil get me so turned on for some reason...

That's funny.
I love weapons, love using weapons, but on the battlefield, I start bleeding, like out of nowhere. I just have to be on the battle field, not even fighitng! Other women have told me that happens to them too. Weird. I guess if fighting turned me on I wouldn't have that problem. Go figure. Sticking to the gun ranges where my cycle is safe...0 -

Hunh... you'd think the stress would make everything shut down like at boot camp. Kinda OT, but the weird thing was I hid my pregnancy from my command for 14 weeks so I could go to the range because I SOOOO needed it for my cutting score to get promoted. Feburary, Camp Lejeune, cold/damp/sleet, you name it. Down to the last "practice day", got stuck pulling butts solo because I outranked my partner so they'd pull him off to police call which of course took forever because, well... the minions never get it right the first time. By the time we humped back & checked weapons I was freaking hemorrhaging so bad I was pretty certain I lost the baby. Btw, nothing clears a room chock full of male Marines quicker than stumbling in, your face & lips drained of color from shock/blood-loss, simply demanding to use the phone and when asked why, saying you think you're having a miscarriage when quite frankly, according to them, preggos (even the unobvious ones) have no business on the range. Ambulance ride to the Navy Hospital. Long story short, my hellion survived, my CO's reaction when the doc told him the baby was ok was priceless as he had no F-ing clue and the next day my range detail had a ton of hypothermia medical-drops. So maybe there is something to the CLP/handling ammo thing or perhaps my body was just more susceptible to the hypothermia than the guys for the obvious reason. Ah well. Odd phenomenon though.0 -

I love it. Tell the commie pinkos to shove it.
I live in Northern California, vote Democrat and I'm all for guns. Its just way too crazy out there for a woman to not be able to defend herself. Now for me. I'm gonna get me a sexy little Beretta. The Tomcat to be exact.0 -

I'm not in favour of them being commonplace, nor should they be banned or seen as necessarily being a problem. In an ideal world they'd only be owned by licence holders who have a genuine interest in hunting or shooting, and I have no issue with that at all.
People who buy them for personal protection? Get real. Unless you're one of the very few who are well practiced, you'd be useless with a handgun in a real life threatening situation.
I know this is a bit late, but in the U.S. guns ARE commonplace, and more common among criminals. What if I have a license and a genuine interest in self-preservation? Oh, and I must be "one of the very few", guess I should've been a marine or something.
btw, here's a nice little statistic from the FBI:
***During the years in which the D.C. handgun ban and trigger lock law was in effect, the Washington, D.C. murder rate averaged 73% higher than it was at the outset of the law, while the U.S. murder rate averaged 11% lower.***

So... I'm shooting a gun in this pic. One and only time I've gone shooting. It was fun.
But, I've gotten some interesting PMs with people that find it inappropriate or even appalling.
I'm intrigued... What are your thoughts?
EVERYone needs to learn the rights and wrongs of gun safety. In this age of insanity, I strongly believe that we, the people, of the United States of America, need to carry for our own protection. Just last week in Carson City, NV, an apprent mental case went on a shooting spree killing 4 National Guardsmen in uniforn at a fastfood joint and injurying 8 others. had at least ONE person properly been carrying with a CCW, it could have been stopped.0 -
Started shooting at age 13 or so... grew up around them and have no problem with them. More power to ya!!0

The day we went shooting I got some awesome pictures of the guys... check it out...

This range looks oddly familiar...where is it?0 -
Proud gun owner here!!!! I love love love to shoot!! Hubby has his concealed weapon permit for his pistol. I want a pistol, but don't have one yet. We own about 15 rifles. My daughter got her 22 rifle at 8. Our kids go shooting with daddy & love it. Education is the key!!!!0

Just as an fyi one person was but did not engage the shooter. A CCWer across the street observed the shootings but decided not to be a hero as he would have had to cross open terrain to get within effective pistol range against an individual armed with a long gun (i.e. an AK-47). I will not fault him for that as I was not there and cannot disagree with his assessment that attempting to stop the shooter would have been suicide.
There is a reason I carry a beater AR-15 with 3 magazines in a lockbox in my SUV....0 -
Honey I went shooting for the first time at a range last month....I HAD A BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to go back. I was a true lesson...took a class first. I have much respect for military and officers.
Guess what folk gone have an opinion on EVERYTHING.0 -

I am selfish... when I ccw it is so that I can get home safely to my family. Engaging in a gunfight is counter to that theory.
For those of you looking for fun new ways to get exercise try IDPA... it is a blast, and some of the stages have you doing a little cardio so you can experience shooting with an elevated heart rate.0 -

You know in my opinion, most people dont want to be shot... I personally dont want to ever shoot a person.. Which is why I have a philosophy on that, which is still untested. I have a shotgun which I keep out, unloaded in case the cats knock it over, which is the first line of defense... why? cause everyone knows the sound of a shotgun being racked. If that doesn't do the job... well i have a handgun, which, I can shoot within the main part of the body on a target with every bullet. (which are hollow points).. So while I may or may not be able to pull the trigger, how many people are really going to stick around to find out? Someone who is hopped up on something may not, but if they do not run... I will shoot... its as simple as that.
So just because you are not well practiced or think you can take care of the situation using whatever means does not mean no one else is. I've been shooting since i was about 5. First gun to shoot was a 22 revolver, which i still think is quite heavy. So don't judge people based off your feelings on them. I hope to never have to use mine for personal defense, but at the same time... I have had middle of the night people show up at my house... welcome and unwelcome.... And i am alone a lot so I will do whatever makes me feel safe....
and just for fun

I live in the UK and I have my firearms and shotgun licences. Had them for about 4 years.
Nothing better after a bad day at work than going down the range and shooting the sh1t outta something!!! A target obviously 0 -
Ok ladies, time to start posting photos on your profile with your favorite firearm!0

Awesome quote!
To whoever said "get real". I never ever want to have to use my firearm on a human being. However, I will if necessary. No one knows at the time of attack what they will do. I personally like having options. You want my personal belongings? FINE take them But you are NOT taking me! Im not going to fight over a purse but I will fight for a life.
P.S. I
my springfield xd .40 subcompact! Great piece and fits nicely in my short stubby little hand, As a matter of fact I just might go spend some quality time with her. Practice practice practice.
P.S.S. I think women that arent afraid to learn to operate a firearm is smart. What good is having one if you dont know how to use it. If you dont like guns remember its a tool. You should at least learn to operate one in my humble yet accurate opinion. Dont be scared. Education is empowering.0 -
Also, she needs to know what to do when the zombie apocalypse goes down.
ABSOLUTELY! Don't want any zombies to eat her brain!
My 'x' and I used to go shooting a lot, way back in the day. There were open gravel pits outside of town, where you could shoot without any harrassment from 'the officials'. People would set up targets and such........I was a pretty good shot with a ruger, a 22 pistol, and an over & under. Even shot skeet a few times, and HIT the danged things!
The X has quite a gun collection......it's a little scary, though, cuz he's quite chemically dependent (and a gun incident was one of the reasons why I left him!)
Haven't been shooting in many years - would love to do it again.:glasses:0 -
Guns=great
Chicks=great
The combination can only mean perfection.
I also love that someone brought up the zombie apocalypse0 -
I am saving for a hangun and am signed up to attend a concealed carry class Oct. 22. I also keep a shotgun under my bed. (Yes, I'm a single girl who lives alone.....in the country.) I go to the shooting range quit often, (or just in my back yard) and I love practicing my shooting. (when can afford all the ammo..haha). I grew up with boys in my family all being hunters, and plan to teach my son the importance of gun safety.
I think your picture is hot! As with everything in this world....to each their own. Everyone isn't expected to agree on everything! I've had a LOT of people question my wanting of guns (to which I have MANY reasons for) but people don't have to agree with me, or feel the same ways that I do.0 -
I have guns and a concealed carrier permit...but where I am from just about everybody, boys and girls, are raised knowing how to shoot a gun.0
-
Girls with guns are hot! Ok, I mean women but, that doesn't rhyme. In my opinion, EVERYBODY should know how to competently handle a firearm safely. You may not like it but, you should at least know how.
Remember ladies, women are much better shots than men so when you go to the range, please don't make us look too bad ... 0 -

You're only as good as your initial instructor though. We're better shots in the military generally because we did not pick up a bunch of bad habits from well meaning dads/uncles as a kid like most guys do. I hit the Primary Marksmanship Instructor lotto jackpot at Parris Island. He held the record for the LEAST "range drops" (where you fail and get dropped back to another platoon to attempt again but adds a week or more to your boot-camp stay) and highest average qualifying score. Awesome instructor, that one.0
