This is something that I feel in this day and age is important for women to have an understanding about,” said Melissa from the Hamburg, Pennsylvania tour location. “For their Birthday this year we will all be taking a training class, getting our permits and purchasing our first handguns. This event took a lot of the anxiety out of the process and really let them decide for themselves.”
