We are a shooting group that honors diversity and is open to all shooters. We help bring new shooters into the sport and provide a fun social environment for all our members. We work to build bridges between the shooting community and other communities, such as those based on alternative sexualities.
You don't have to be gay to join us, any more than you have to be Black to support civil rights, or be Jewish to support the JPFO (Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership). We include members from the GLBT, Polyamarous, and BDSM communities, but you don't need to be gay or have an alternative sexuality to join and shoot with us.
No, we want to make the sport accessible and we are friendly to new shooters. We can give you basic instruction, and on all our range trips some club members will bring extra for you.
No, however if you have any questions call the law authorities in your county.
Simple, not only can you to access this website for updates, but we also have a mailing list. The mailing list is Palouse Pink Pistols
Only you can say for sure, but anyone who has any clue about firearms will tell you to start by renting. Rent several and try different makes and models of firearm with varying calibers. Most important, start with a light caliber. For a first time shooter, the muzzle flip and recoil can be a bit of a surprise. There is no shame in building up to something you're sure you can tolerate. Besides, the primary concern here is safety. Biting off more than you can chew with a firearm can be very dangerous. If you need help in finding what's right for you there will be people there to help.
Simple. Ask. We can try and answer any questions you might have about the firearm you've chosen and how it works. If you've never fired a weapon before, please let us know in advance. It's better to learn the right way to load, unload, and fire a weapon, than to learn the hard way. We can provide basic firearm instruction and provide you with the name of a certified instructor
We want to be able to endorse candidates that will support the Second Amendment as well as the rights of consenting adults to love each other how they wish however they wish. We also chose to go this route, rather than filing as a PAC because it means we are free of the legal paperwork PAC's are required to file.
No. Although we do work with the NRA. For example, in California the NRA-ILA contacted us (the parent organization) and asked us to take a look at some legislation before the State Assembly and submit written testimony with our take on the bills. On the other hand, many of members dislike the NRA due to the positions they have taken, such as helping push through "Instant Background Checks" on a federal level.
No. We are strictly non-partisan.
