Rapier & kt,
I agree with you guys. For the last 10 years, or more, I have helped a retired college professor with her Women on Target program at the local gunclub. I run the muzzleloader station and instruct groups of 6 women on flinters, caplocks and inlines. I show them how to load and fire the muzzleloaders and then they are all loading and firing like seasoned grenadiers.
Many of the women have never fired a gun before they come to WOT. They shoot BP, .22 rifles, .22 handguns and 20 gauge guns on sporting clays. About 35% of the women join the gun club and about half that number get their CCW permits and ASK for further handgun instruction. Our WOT women number about 30 to 45 women per session. I would not miss a session for anything because the women are great folks who shoot better than their husbands or significant others would ever imagine. The owner of the S&W M13 was a former WOT student in one of my classes.
