[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 1376336, member: 1242"] Actually, in spirit, I agree with everything you have posted. Women tend to be less confident in their abilities because they don't practice as much as men do overall. Back before I hurt my neck I would stand toe to toe with you and fire any caliber of weapon you cared to play with all day long ... BUT ... that was after GC worked a long, long time with me. You cannot know how many times we went to the range and I was ready to leave after only one or two magazines through a couple of guns ... :shocked: With the wide array of firearms at our disposal in this day and time there is not reason why any woman cannot find a gun she is comfortable with and can learn how to shoot proficient. Drawing, aiming and firing under stress is a completely different animal though. EVERYONE (not just women) need to get specialized training as often as they can and practice regularly because drawing your weapon under the stress of an ongoing incident is NOTHING like drawing your gun at the range (or even playing around in competitions, although I can say that shooting in competitions has made me much more confident in my abilities to handle a gun under stress).
