Additional Notes on this: I carry 2 sidearms, a primary and a secondary, as well as additional magazines for a total of about 32 rounds on my person at any given time. I aim to have a minimum of about 19 rounds (2 6 round spare mags + a 6 round magazine in my primary, and 1 round chambered), particularly if I am only able to carry my primary side arm given the outfit I'm wearing. Ensure all holsters have trigger guards idgaf what safety features your firearm has, safeties are mechanical devices capable of failure. My secondary I carry in condition 3, whereas my primary is carried in condition 0. I will also post photos later and reviews on both of my sidearms and why they are what they are.
I'm seeing a ton of Feminists urging eachother to get a gun due to the election results, which is fantastic news imo American women please please please assert your 2nd amendment rights and get a gun if you're able to <3
You can start by looking into the gun laws in your state: https://everytownresearch.org/rankings/compare/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_laws_in_the_United_States_by_state Gun safety: https://www.agirlandagun.org/how-to-shoot/4-rules-of-gun-safety/ Youtube has thousands of gun related videos, it's a male dominated culture but there are absolutely a ton of resources for female shooters and beginners. Reddit has a handful of firearm related subs, included r/firearms(skews conservative/rightwing) and r/liberalgunowners and r/concealedcarrywomen Facebook has women's gun groups also, many of them skew conservative but can still be a valuable resource for beginners Check out your local area for self defense firearm classes, some will have classes geared specifically to women. Check out your local gun stores, or sporting goods stores, some will have a range in which you can rent a firearm before purchasing but many don't have this feature, so it's important to do product research before buying. https://www.pewpewtactical.com/best-handguns-women/ https://tombstonetactical.com/blog/best-guns-for-women (Most guns range from $400 to $700 btw) Gun store employees are overwhelmingly male (and in my experience, old) and might try to steer you towards the tiny pink pistol, or a .22, or something else equally impractical for self defense. It's important to be assertive and clear in what you're looking for!
