Women Changing the World

[alfsauve]

Optics Planet has this article where they picked out the 7 women they though most influential in changing the shooting world.   Many, many names left off, including Gabby Franco among others.   But you have to draw the line somewhere or you run out of space.

So I thought I'd bring my on nominee up for consideration.   A friend of mine who's making a splash, first as a top Jr. SAS shooter now that she's turned 18 as one of the top Ladies.

Ashlynn Peters of Marietta, GA





You can read more about her at:  The American Woman Shooter on Facebook or on their webpage after the next issue comes out.  http://www.theamericanwomanshooter.com/

I don't know how college is going to affect her shooting schedule, but she usually goes to EOT and Winter Range, so watch out this coming year.





And guys, she already has a steady boyfriend.

Did you ever notice how good pro-gun women look and how ugly the anti-gunners are?

And you didn't even have to bring out reserves, like Sarah Palin, Dana Loecsh (sp?)or Meghan Kelly.

One of this countries greatest hopes is the rapidly growing ranks of strong, independent conservative women....many, many of them are also deeply involved in competitive shooting, self defense and firearms in general.

I love it.

given how pussy most young men are these days....

makes me sick to know that I am one of the few "manly" men of my generation, let alone the generations that came after me.  I can count on 1 hand the number of sub 25 yo  "men" I have met.  they almost exclusively come from hard working families that own a business, its 50/50 split them being ex military.  no bs, I have been called  to change light bulbs( not even hard to get, like  6' ladder) and things like out let covers.  its like they have never have gotton their hands dirty.

TAB, that's your 30 ish opinion.
Think how disgusted it makes those of us who grew up splitting wood for heat and cooking, and using an out house.
I didn't have indoor plumbing or electricity till I got to Parris Island.
Most of these wimpy bastards would die if they lived like I have, wake up in the morning and it's 10 degrees in the kitchen because the stove went out over night, and I know I'm not the only one can tell those types of stories.

shit at 13 I bought a 8' fiber glass a frame ladder so I could clean gutters so I could buy stuff,  still have the ladder.  I use to walk  around the block carrying it to do it.  for the grand sum of $3.   i worked construction from a young age, at 7 i was taught to paint base boards, at 11 i could paint a flat door, needed to stand on a 5 gallon bucket to do it.  at 16, I worked on housing tracks, where you had to paint all the walls in one house, go next door and do two bedrooms.  with just a BRUSH!  back when using something else would get you violated from the union( suspended/ kicked out)   i know what its like to have to work.

It's cool that you did that, but to show you the change in America, my Dad taught me how to set a dynamite charge before I learned to read, no biggie, it was only $18 a case cash and carry, and they threw in a coil of fuse and the blasting caps free.
Those were the days when a 10 year old could send of his money and have a gun come in the mail.
