Women are arming themselves at an unprecedented rate. And although, statistically speaking, the number of female shooters is still relatively small within the gun community, the number has continued to increase over the last several years and shows no sign of letting up anytime soon.
“I think they realize in the society we live in they are not always in a group where gentlemen are around, and they are taking personal responsibility for that,” Doug Williamson, owner of The Gun Shoppe in Montgomery, Ala., told the Montgomery Advertiser last week. “These ladies have (made) the decision to be able to prepare… to take care of themselves.”
And learning to take care of themselves they are.
