A GIRL AND A GUN: Shooting Group Stresses Sisterhood, Safety

By Carrina Stanton For The Chronicle Years ago, Jennie Van Tuyl's husband bought her a gun for Christmas. The first time she took it to a range, she was hooked. Today, she is a National Rifle As- sociation certified trainer and an instructor at Firearms Academy of Seattle near Chehalis. But, Van Tuyl acknowledged, not every woman's first foray into the world of shooting is so positive. “A lot of women can be uncomfortable shooting around men because they've had some uncomfortable experiences,” Van Tuyl said. That is the idea behind A Girl And a Gun, the women-only shooting group that has been operating for about two years out of F.A.S. The group's formation was actually a suggestion by Marty Hayes, who has owned F.A.S. since 1987 and the location off Centralia Alpha Road near Chehalis since 1994. Hayes attended a conference about two years ago and Diane Walls, an instructor at Firearms Academy of Seattle and co-facilitator of A Girl and A Gun, does a demonstration on safe holster work on Sunday, June learned about the national A Girl And a 28 at the Firearms Academy of Seattle private range in Onalaska.
