The NRA has released a special-edition digital publication, What NRA Does for Women, celebrating NRA women members and spotlighting NRA programs for women. What NRA Does for Women highlights NRA programs and activities geared toward women: recreational and competitive shooting; hunting; Second Amendment advocacy; and today’s primary reason for firearm ownership by women—self-defense.

This eZine spotlights the roles played by women in the NRA’s 153-year history, featuring ladies who helped shape the NRA into the most influential gun rights organization in the world. The eZine highlights champion women shooters and prominent lady gun journalists and commentators.

Women are now the fastest-growing demographic of gun owners. And women were well-represented within the NRA even in its earliest days. While it would still be nearly 50 years after the NRA came into existence before full women’s suffrage in the U.S. was realized, women have always been essential in transforming the nation’s oldest civil rights organization into the world’s most influential gun-rights group.

Created by the women editors of NRA Media, What NRA Does for Women spotlights some of the major milestones and accomplishments of the pioneering women who forged the path for today’s lady gun owners. This special edition eZine also includes reviews of recommended firearms for ladies.

While the NRAWomen.com website regularly features news and information for women gun owners, this new digital eZine highlights the NRA’s many programs and activities geared toward women. There are stories on hunting, competition shooting, and training for self-defense.
