Also, Playboy model Leanna Decker is a gun enthusiast, and actress Ariel Winter from Modern Family has strongly hinted that she's pro-gun as well.

I think we call that "cyber stalking."

If this sort of commercial opportunism makes you uncomfortable at a time when the country is suffering from a never-ending gun violence epidemic — 39,773 gun deaths in 2017, the highest number on record in America — you’re probably not alone. Especially when you consider the kind of guns that dominate the tactical community. Best and his followers aren’t interested in collecting hunting rifles or shotguns, Lord no. There’s even a derogatory term for people who still use those things. They’re called Fudds, as in Elmer. What’s in vogue are semiautos. Sleek high-capacity weapons originally designed for military use and now favored by school shooters. The preferred gun of mass murderers — the AR-15 — is also the preferred gun of the sexy millennials of Instagram.

You know it's slanted in a huge way.

Oh, I just follow them for the gun aspect of it. I like to see some of the new firearm releases, and they often have good training videos and new techniques to study. Yes, they're beautiful women who also post bikini pictures, but that's irrelevant.


....Is what I tell my wife. :D

"The preferred gun of mass murderers"

Reporters in the U.S. are an embarrassment...

bombs are the preferred weapons of mass murderers with planes coming in a close second

These gals — Glenda Craddock and Amy May — are among those revving up the trend in Hampton Roads. Through shops and gun groups aimed at women consumers, they've helped launch new offerings in the $13 billion industry — purses with built-in gun compartments, brightly-colored gun accessories, specialized clothing, even bras with a place to stash a weapon. Women are taking over shooting competitions and sharing their accomplishments on social media.

LOL at thinking Mat Best's Instagram is edgy. If you do, you haven't spent much time on IG or you don't know where to look.

Wait! I thought women were supposed to be good little victims that peed on themselves to stop a rapist and waited patiently for the police to arrive?!
