I have shot at the West Side Range often. The Times usually does a story on them every few years, but this was the best I've seen.

"Although she said that politics were far from her mind when she joined, she discovered that the task of getting licensed was much more difficult than she had thought."

However, if you are an illegal alien, you will find applying for a driver's license to be easy and short.

Girls with guns!

Jeff Cooper and his self-named online column Commentaries (linked) are mentioned in the article -- I hadn't heard of him before, but he sounds like a Korean War I special ops or CIA vet. He was at SHOT, so Matt might have met him there.

Jeff Cooper is The Real Deal. His entire commentaries are worth reading and considering. Very conservative and very un-PC.

director of political activities for the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association,

Mr. Brophy is not that busy

Now THAT's an understatement.

Who are those NY Senators again? Yowza.

Lucky anybody in NY can even write about guns.
