MASSIVE INCREASE IN FEMALE GUN OWNERSHIP

A Girl And A Gun Is A Women's Shooting League Out Of Michigan

TAYLOR, Mich. (WXYZ) — A girl and a gun, a fitting name for a shooting league created for women by women.

“It’s kind of like being on a bowling league, only we shoot guns,” said Audree Danielson.

A new study finds that close to half of all new U.S. gun buyers since 2019 have been female. In Michigan, a growing number of women are learning how to use a firearm. Images showing unprecedented turnout – 1000 to 2000 women – wrapped around the block during the pandemic to attend the free firearm training event Legally Armed in Detroit.

“I have been consistently teaching ladies-only classes without even intending to because they’re coming out of the woodwork,” said Danielson.
