How do you feel about girls that can use a gun?


Being able to defend yourself is a good thing. However, women in particular are often raised with the idea of "it doesn't matter what you do; you're just a girl", which society is quick to reinforce. This is part of why domestic violence rates are so horrifically high among lesbian couples. That line of thinking is dangerous enough in its own right, but you REALLY don't want to see that among armed people. Naturally, it's not limited to girls, but it IS worse among them, and I think a vitally important part of learning to use is a gun is learning when to use it, and not just how.
I'm a former firearms instructor and competitive shooter - before California laws made that virtually impossible. But I'm sure you can imagine what I think. I've taken my girlfriend to the range a couple of times, and she's slowly getting comfortable with shooting.
@Vegasrunner Yes. For now, at least. Only FFLs can bring ammo into the state, and you have to have a background check to buy it (which of course you pay for), and you have to pay again and run the check again every time you buy. Currently that only costs $1 per transaction - ASSUMING you have legally purchased a gun in California AND you have not moved since them so that all of your data (address and phone number) still matches AND you have a "Real ID".
You can *technically* import ammo, but much like buying a gun, you have to have it shipped to an FFL, who then perform the background check before giving it to you - and the FFL can charge whatever he likes for this service. As you can imagine, they don't want you buying ammo for $10 a box when they sell it for $25 a box, so expect to pay a substantial fee.
That also means the government is going to keep track of your purchases, and who can say if and/or when they decide that you've bought too much and need a "friendly visit" - one that your dogs definitely won't survive, and you'll be lucky if you do.
@MrOracle Whats FFL? Also this sounds like it's a California state law? and difficult to enforce, I buy ammo in Nevada all the time, and travel w/ my firearm to California and Arizona pretty regularly, granted I could unknowingly be breaking a law, but because of where Vegas is located most people I know frequent Cali, Utah and Arizona w/ firearms.
FFL = Federal Firearms License. Especially a licensed gun dealer. And, yes, if you are importing ammo from out of state, that's a big no no that could potentially end your right to own guns - and that would apply nationwide.
California politicians have made no secret that they hope to disqualify as many people as possible.
These laws are blatantly unconstitutional, but the 9th Circus upholds them anyway unless the Supreme Court agrees to review the case, and smacks the 9th Circus down (they are by far the most overturned court of all the Federal Circuit courts.
Even when they are overturned, the process takes 5 or 6 years and they will have passed 5 more unconstitutional laws in that time, so it's a forever war.
It's a sport like playing tennis or volleyball. .22LR isn't really a caliber to shoot people or even animals bigger than a rat.
On the other hand if you can shoot a group with diameter of a coin in 100m with.22 you will hit a politician in 600m with.338 without any troubles, that's why they are afraid of pleb having firearms and know hot to use them.
Even though Florida doesn't require a permit any longer for CCW my husband and I both took classes for proper handling of a gun and how to correctly use it. In the beginning we would go to the range every week, but haven't done that in awhile. I do carry a S & W Bodyguard most of the time.

My wife can shoot. Actually she's a bloomin' good shot too. Only Airguns of course as 'real' guns are mostly illegal to shoot here!
I really enjoy the competition!
Now it’s official… I’m in love lol.
Every girl I’ve ever dated I took to the range and taught them to shoot. I think it’s an important skill to learn.
“God created men, Col. Colt made them equal”
This goes for women too!
nothing... I can use it, I have a sports license and take part in competitions...
but... I have a very good aim... but I seriously doubt I could shoot a human or an animal...
Honestly safer…. Maybe for some dudes it sounds weird. Unless she’s a sketchy person. It’s not that I wouldn’t defend someone I love. But it’s like we got each other’s back.
Plus shooting dates if she’s a romantic partner. Definitely would be a blast
That’s hot!!! Men love women, guns beer, sex n food lol ok maybe not all men but I know I do. I own several myself. So if it’s one more thing we have in common that we can do together, that’s wonderful. Me watching her shoot, as her lady parts jiggle w each squeeze of that trigger lol powerful guns lol then we have a little make out session from it making me so amped up lol
Good, they should absolutely learn. I’ll always say we need gun control but I’ll never turn down a good education. If people are going to have access to these weapons, they should be required to know how to shoot.
No, you can literally just buy a gun and leave the place you bought it from. My home state used to require an education to certify one’s concealed carry permit (otherwise it falls under castle law meaning you can only carry a loaded gun inside your house or in your car but not any other public area or private building) but then they instituted constitutional carry so now castle law no longer applies. The only thing you have to go through if you’ve never owned a gun before is a small background check and a 3 day waiting period. If you’ve had no history of violence, you’re usually good to buy
Honestly, hand guns have a bit more restriction on them but things like shotguns and hunting rifles are sold in walmart with pretty much no restriction at all because they’re not selling ammunition made to defend yourself but ammunition made for hunting bucks and birds. The easiest cheat sheet if you want a gun but don’t want to deal with the legal restrictions is to just get one of those and fill it with buckshot ammo
No different than I feel about men who can use guns. I've been handling guns and shooting since I was around 9 years old. I love recreational shooting and hunting.
properly?
because... anybody can use, a gun...
shit, they even fire "themselves" sometimes
generally speaking... I do feel safer around people who can actually handle fire guns, properly
Outside of Nancyboy fearmongering I'm pretty sure they've never fired themselves save some incident where they were in a warehouse fire or something.
@BoopBoopBeep thankfully... they're not manufactured by Boeing...
@NathanDavis
Haha yes those may actually walk about and shoot randomly
I don't like the thought of anyone using a gun. Look at the US and the amount of gun related crimes. Guns should be reserved for army and police only.
Yes as a fun activity it's ok but not for public use
Well it's hot as it would be with any girl who knows how to handle a weapon.
But then again I am not an advocate for gun rights and glad that England ain't having school shootings every month or other month because of them.
That it’s someone that can use a firearm. The rest depends on the level of competence, accuracy at distance, accuracy under pressure, able to run in full battle kit and still hit targets at 300yds in tight groupings.
Sad that some live in so much fear or relish being an intimidating asshole.
Chill, it can also be fun to shoot. Obviously this doesn’t apply to people with weird fantasies.
honestly probably the same that most women think about a guy who can use a gun. just why? that is a morbid obsession to me. you don't need a firearm unless you're living in a shed in the woods and bears may attack you.
How do you feel about men who can fly a plane? Is there a big difference?
Good, I know how to use them because used them on work experience
Found my uncle's one, associated with some shady characters and also had one pointed at me (luckily deactivated)
Guys Smash, Girls Shoot Trope, Melee Fighting is more Masculine than Shooting.
I love it. If a woman shows even the smallest interest in guns, I will help her improve her skills until she is better than me.
I'd feel better knowing she can defend herself when I am not there to handle business.
Its sexy and it means we probably align on guns.
Not any different I would feel towards a guy who can use a gun: Why?
Fantastic! I think it's extremely important for women to exercise their 2nd amendment rights.
It's the great equalizer.
That depends on what she uses the gun for :D
But basically, I find archery to be more attractive.
I find it sexy, honestly.
Sorta sexy if they're hot, but not as much if they're MAGA women. Then they may shoot me on sight because I'm black.(I CERTAINLY AM calling MAGA men and women racists because 90-95% are !!!)
I'm impressed, I don't know how to use one myself, but I am always impressed by people who can.
Just as dangerous as guys who can use a gun.
Considering women are slim and beautiful creatures, they should protect themselves with a gun.
I think it's good that they know how to use a gun and can defend themselves if necessary
Every person should know how to unload a gun and make it safe.
I’m cool with it. Self defense in general is just very valuable
Hot as heck!
You shoot and or own any?
I am a huge firearms advocate!
Only In America. smh
That's good so they can defend themselves
So many assholes replied. It's good to be trained how to shoot.
My Dad taught me to shoot.
It's a good skill to have regardless of gender.
At least they are gonna teach me how to shot 😆
Hubba Hubba. Enough said.
I don't date any that can't.
Ummm mixed feelings... scared and in awe
I prefer they don't use it on me.
Awesome, we can shoot together.
That would be fun.
Because your a girl that likes to shoot guns. I own guns.
A little scared, a little turned on.
Wow that's great!!! Lady with power.
Fine. Most of my exes could.
I’m afraid of guns
I think it’s sexy
Absolutely Beautiful and Sexy!
Good for them 👍
I don't feel anyway about it.
Hey, more power to them!
A gun girl ,,, what else
Hot unless she gives me too much competition LOL
Eastern european woman again.
I think most people should carry a gun
Good for you, what kind of pistol is that?
Don't care one way or another
Good that they can use a gun 🔫
yes this is hot
