At the top of our lineup this week is some amazing news from Walther. NRA Women editors awarded the Walther PDP Compact the 2022 Golden Bullseye for Handgun of the Year because we thought it was an incredible gun that women could and would shoot well.

However, Walther apparently wasn’t satisfied that it was the best gun they could build specifically for women’s hands. All the while as we extolled the virtues of the PDP Compact, Walther engineers were working furiously behind the scenes on the PDP F-Series—a women specific model announced today. Meet the Walther PDP-F, a totally reimagined gun just for women.

Here’s how.
Just a few days ago, the Alabama Governor’s One-Shot Turkey Hunt crowned a new turkey-hunting hero, Linda Powell. The Governor’s Hunt is every bit as exclusive as it sounds, with a mere 64 hunters participating in the invitation-only 2022 event. Powell may seem to have been an underdog in comparison to her star-studded competition, but that would only be to those who don’t know her as well as we do here on NRA Women ...
Silencer Central and Hannah Barron have some things in common, most notably their dedication to breaking the social stigma that still surrounds so many aspects of the shooting sports. Barron has been an advocate for women in the outdoors all her life, but she first came to America’s attention back in 2016 when she had a video of herself “noodling” go viral on social media.
