Both men and women should own and be proficient in immediately stopping someone with lethal force from a firearm.
Women, being smaller and weaker, need firearms even more than men. Women are more likely to be at a disadvantage in a violent confrontation.

My wife and I shoot all the time. She's pretty handy with a Shotgun, I would not want to be clay pidgeon around her. I'm currently saving up to get her a .38 special revolver she picked out from the local gun shop.

Thank you for the kind words. I wholly agree regarding educating the kids too. I taught mine proper respect, handling, operation, and maintenance, just like my father taught me and my siblings, using Ruger 10/22 rifles similar to the ones sold half a century ago. They will teach my grandchildren the same way.

My father thaught me on his great uncle's .22 long rifle. It had an awesome carved stock and saddle rub from when he carried it horseback. Teach children the dangers of guns, and the precautions to take when handling them and they won't go playing with them. Instead they will grow up to out shoot you on the range :)
