On New Year’s Eve, one of the city’s most beloved stores shut its doors for the last time.
After more than four years in the community, She’s A Pistol LLC closed for business, leaving behind a heartbroken community of devoted customers and supporters.
The reason behind the store’s closure is a startling reminder of reality’s darkest challenges.
Tremendous legal expenses, mounted up from tragic circumstances, forced owner Becky Bieker to make the hardest decision of her life.
In January 2015, four young men attempted to rob She’s A Pistol at gunpoint. During a subsequent shootout, Bieker’s husband, Jon, was shot and killed. |

| Criminals killed the business after the wife continued to try and keep going in spite of losing her husband. Liability laws that favor the criminals in a gun defense situation are an atrocity and should be the focus and of every civic minded patriot. Shame on KS lawmakers. |
