As intimidating as guns can be, that is no reason to avoid them, says Karen Kevelson.
“Ignorance is a dangerous thing. If you become more educated, you become more able to make a decision,” said the Marion resident.
Kevelson was one of 24 participants in the National Rifle Association’s Women on Target program, held at the Sippican Rod & Gun Club on Saturday. The all-day program gives women a foundation in safe gun use, hands-on training and qualifies participants to apply for a License to Carry or a Firearms Identity Card.

"Cynthia Casner, 81, shoots a pistol at the NRA Women on Target program[.]"
No, she doesn't. She shoots a REVOLVER.
Pistols load the round in the breach. Revolvers load the round in the cylinder.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
