What Did The Blaze Find at the NRA Convention? A Bra Holster, a .22 Belt-Buckle, and a Lady Zombie

Think you know guns? Think again. The Blaze headed out to the National Rife Association’s (NRA) 141st convention in St. Louis this past weekend and was blown away at the gadgets, gurus, and yes, guns, that descended on the convention.
We, along with thousands of others, captured the flashiest new gun gear and, just as fascinating, the people there to celebrate the Constitutional right of gun ownership in America. What exactly did we find? Lots of guns for starters. But there were also the Bra Holster, .22 belt buckle, golden Tommy Gun and .50 caliber diamond studded necklace, zombies and a stunning number of women (and pink guns).
Take a look for yourself:
By the way, The Blaze wasn’t the only one to notice the increased presence of women at the convention and in the gun industry. The Daily Beast dedicated an entire article to it.

Admittedly I don’t find them attractive, but they may be capable since they’re clearly not hot. Anyway, lots of women are hot and can shoot. It’s just like in the biker world where guys assume because a hot chic in a bikini is posing on a bike, she’s just a bimbo and she may be, but she may also be a great rider.

Google the mounted shooting champion and you’ll find one extremely attractive blonde who not only shoots a six gun very well, she does it from horseback. Then there‘s the case of the Florida beauty queen who’s home was broken into and was attacked. When her fiance tried to stop the attack, the attacker turned on him. This gave her just enough time to get her little pink framed 38 special and empty it into the attacker thereby ending the assault.

You both crack me up. Not only am I laughing at your feigned moral indignation over my use of hotbitch to describe my wife, she’s laughing as well. You have insulted us both without benefit of knowing either of us. Her you insult by insinuating she accepts any abuse through some silly lack of self-esteem. What you don’t know about the love of my life is her bright, loving, giving beautiful nature. She loves me every minute of every day. She cares for me and loves me like no other woman on earth could or should. She is the very best person I’ve ever known with the most loving kindest heart I’ve ever experienced. Although she would eat YOUR face off if you ever even hinted at calling her a hotbitch and honestly she would have to get past me to do it and only after I made you eat your own heart, she says I have earned the right to call her anything I wished and hotbitch as I say it makes her smile, but only as MY hotbitch. When my 1st wife passed after 16 yrs of marriage I raised my children on my own for 11 yrs until I happened to find her and she not only had the guts to love me but fell in love with my kids and has made us her life and love.
As for me, you may be right I‘m not a great man but I do love her and when she’s sick it’s me sitting by her side with love affection and a cold compress on her cute little head. She makes my heart beat, my head swim and my life great. I love her accordingly every day in every way. But thanks for pla

Her Grandfather, Father, Mother, Sisters, Son and Uncle all tell me that they have never seen her happier……Regardless however of what anyone else thinks, her love for me is the only answer I will ever need. But hey thanks for playing….lol
As for being a man and learning from my father, well, he‘s an ignorant twit who’s always going off on people behind there back with a knee jerk reaction to something he had no real knowledge of. He thinks because he believes it, we all should live it. Sound familiar? Look out, your insecurities are showing.
Bottom line is, you don’t know me well enough to call me a punk. If being a devoted family man who loves his kids, wife, family and neighbors enough to be there for them at every turn makes me a punk I will be honored to be a punk all the rest of my life.

great to hear you love your wife, and respect her. I hope you put away the gangster rap language, and call her names more fitting of the beautiful woman you described.
Perhaps I was just raised different, and aint quite with the modern day times. There are certain names that if one were to call my wife these names, then I would do my best to stomp them until guts come out their mouth. If I feel that strong about others using those names for my wife, then I guess it would be wrong for me to call her the same. In these modern times, very few boys are raised to be men. Very few are instructed in practical rifle marksmanship, how to be a gentleman, how to treat a lady, how to read and study the Bible…. Thus the reason we have a nation of punk men that voted for Obama, and have no spine.

Posted on April 18, 2012 at 8:55amthe problems is that most of what you see on here is not “a woman that can handle a firearm”. It is bimbos holding a firearm.
I am a huge 2nd amendment fan, and NRA member. I see a trend in America with what I call “gun people”. They buy their ARs, and Glocks, and they love to pose in pics, talk tough, and burn through ammo. The reality is thought, if you put them on the range, most can not hit a bull in the butt with a base fiddle. Rare are marksman that are skilled at shooting. Instead of seeing a pic of some “hottie”, I would rather see pics of someone giving real deal safe marksmanship to men, women, and kids. Most would do well to leave the zombie guns alone, and pick up a good old fashioned .22, and learn a little about sights and trigger (what marksmanship is all about).
Youtube is loaded down with clips of Bubba taking his wife beater clad bimbo to the range, and handing here the 44 mag, and watching here get smacked in the face from the recoil. I see no entertainment in all of this, and think these types are doing more to hurt gun ownership, then help.
