I recently purchased a new revolver that I’m very excited to tell everyone about. It is the perfect defensive firearm for me: simple, light and easy to shoot. It holds a powerful round with a lot of stopping power so…

Pink Guns (I’d actually shoot)
by Shelley •
Yesterday I saw a picture of a pink Taurus 24/7 and all I could think of was “Why can’t they just market good guns to us?” I’ve written before about what women want and, more specifically, the fact that it’s…
Local matches
by Shelley •
One of the primary complaints I hear after we run our club matches at West Coast Armory is “I didn’t get to shoot very much.” You should never go into a local match environment expecting to shoot a lot. Club/local…
