demographic or you have a loved one who is, do you have a plan for when danger strikes? Do you know how to defend yourself against attack or assault? InLiving an Armed Life, NRA

defending yourself as a woman, with chapters on:

How to carry (both on and off the body)
Discerning when and when not to shoot
Arming yourself as you age
