My Story – Tina

My local range had a sign for The Well Armed Woman. Every time we went there I looked at that sign. I am a bit of an introvert so I really didn’t want to ask or go by myself. The more we went to the range, we developed a friendship with the owners. I finally got up the courage to ask about it. The next week I went and that is where my story begins. After attending for a few months, I received an email that the chapter was closed due to the leader stepping down. I was devastated this was something I really enjoyed. I contacted the home office of TWAW and asked how to keep it alive. They told me I had to be a certified NRA instructor. So what did I do, I began to train and became an instructor.

I have met so many women along this journey. They have become some of my closest friends. We have a common bond. I have become more confident in myself and my abilities.
