3 weeks ago | nrawomen.com | B. Gil Horman

Charter Arms has been manufacturing affordable, reliable, American-made concealed-carry revolvers for more than 60 years. Although they have not wandered too far from their original wheelgun formula, their designers keep mixing, matching and adding features in innovative ways to expand their catalog. Near the end of 2024, Charter launched two new series dubbed the Double Dog and the Coyote.
Off-Body Carry: You’ve Entered the No-Judgement Zone

3 weeks ago | nrawomen.com | Ann Smith

After years of promoting the benefits of on-body concealed carry, I was finally able to put into practice what I had been preaching. With a fresh CCW permit in my wallet (thanks to the Bruen decision) I had every intention of complying with that carry method, trying holster after holster and playing the “which one works best” game.
Amanda Suffecool: Accidental Activist Extraordinaire?

2 months ago | nrawomen.com | John Petrolino

Amanda Suffecool says she was born with a rattle in one hand and a Ruger in the other. She comes from a family of firearm enthsiasts. The patent-holding engineer turned instructor, turned activist, turned radio host, turned National Rifle Association (NRA) Board member is a fixture in the Second Amendment community. She might be a fixture, but Suffecool is not staying in one place, nor is she slowing down. “My mother taught Hunter Safety. My grandfather shot trap in the circuit,” said Suffecool.

2 months ago | nrawomen.com | B. Gil Horman

Some folks are saying that there's not much new under the sun in the shooting market for 2025. True, there may not be as much to holler about as in past years. But at the 2025 SHOT Show, held annually in Las Vegas, Nevada, there was still a diverse selection of new guns to see. From exotic to practical, here's just a few of the handguns, rifles and shotguns that will be available at your local dealer in the near future.
Henry's Single-Shot .410 Bore Turkey Gun

Jan 8, 2025 | nrawomen.com | B. Gil Horman

In 2017 I had my first opportunity to work with Henry Repeating Arms’ top-notch series of break-action, single-shot rifles and shotguns. Many of the one-shot options on the market today are made to be budget-friendly. And while they do work, some models are, how shall we say it—less than elegant. When Henry got into the single-shot business it brought its passion for high-quality, American-made firearms to the platform.
Review: Henry's .223 Rem. Lever-Action Long Ranger Express

Nov 29, 2024 | nrawomen.com | B. Gil Horman

These days it's difficult to overstate the popularity of the .223 Remington (.223 Rem.) cartridge with American shooting sports enthusiasts. This mid-size, bottleneck cartridge began as an experimental round developed for the new lightweight Armalite rifle (AR) back in 1957. By 1964 the U.S. Army had adopted a fully automatic (and later select-fire) version of the AR which was designated the M-16.

Bond Arms .32-Caliber Stinger Fireball Review

Oct 16, 2024 | nrawomen.com | B. Gil Horman

When Bond Arms first released the slim, lightweight aluminum framed Stinger series of pistols in 2021, I hoped that the company would offer a .327 Fed. Mag. version. As of last year, it had yet to happen. So, I mixed and matched a Stubby stainless steel frame, an extended B6 resin grip and a.327 Fed. Mag. accessory barrel to assemble a pistol that I lovingly dubbed The Wasp. The finished pistol tipped the scales at 17 oz. Although it was the slimmest and smallest .327 Fed. Mag.
Sound Suppressors: An Introduction to How They Work

Oct 13, 2024 | nrawomen.com | B. Gil Horman

TSimply stated, a sound suppressor is a device attached to the muzzle of a firearm to reduce the muzzle blast, or report, when fired. But as you may suspect, there's a bit more to it than that. In this post about Silencer Central suppressors, we touched on why shooting sports enthusiasts choose to use suppressors, and some of the legal hoops you have to jump through to own one.
