1. Ladies & Firearms
by Chris Dixon
Most story’s we hear today talk about men and their guns. Let me let you in on a secret there are a
huge number of ladies that like firearms as well. I was at the Shot Show a few weeks back and the
firearms industry has definitely started offering products that the ladies will love. You can find pink
pistols and rifles of every make, model, and size. The firearms industry is drawing in a huge number of
lady self-purchasers who enjoy shooting guns and much as the men do. Interestingly, many of these
ladies might surprise you with their experience and skill levels. Did I forget to mention that many of
these women are attractive as well!
I would like to bring to your attention Jacqueline (Jackie) Carrizosa.

2. Jackie is a military veteran, model, fitness trainer, personal firearms trainer and is the founder and
instructor at Firearms for Life, LLC. She was recruited by director Peter Berg to personally train Rihanna
in the movie Battleship. I enjoyed the movie Battleship and as you might know Rihanna had a strong
supporting role on that show. Rihanna was playing a movie character that closely resembled the real
life role of Jackie as a naval gunners-mate. You can read more on this store at “I taught Rihanna how to
shoot” on MailOnline. You can also connect with her on Linked-In at Jacqueline Carrizosa.
There are also ladies that compete in shooting sports and are world class champions. Randi Rogers and
Julie Golob are both professional shooters and national champions.
Julie Golob Randi Rogers
Take a minute to review all of the accomplishments they have achieved so far. Here is a link to their BIO
page. You would think with their involvement in the shooting sports life would be too busy to do
anything else. That is not the case with Randi and Julie as they also have a podcast called “Gun Girl
Radio”. Their show has been live for an entire year and Jan 2014 marked their 35th
show. Be sure to
check out their show. You will be glad you did!
I wanted to share these stories of outstanding ladies in our industry. The firearms industry is not just a
bunch of grey haired older men…although that does actually describe me. We are a huge group of
men and women from all races and ages that enjoy our 2nd
Amendment right.
