If this is for real from the NRA, I am mad at them.

[JetGirl]

Found this on FaceBook.
It's atrocious!!
Way to make women look like idiots... "Women of the NRA, go break your thumbs! And other dumb stuff!"

 

[Tony7141]

What exactly is it about this that bothers you?

 

[Rob377]

Probably that god-awful grip.

Couldn't they get Julie G or Jessie Harrison? Cripes.

 

[ctbreitwieser]

I think its the way her thumbs are crossed behind the slide.

Are you serious? Do you teach a new shooter to hold a semi-auto in a way that will likely injure them really badly??
And shouldn't the NRfrickenA know better...being that they're all gunnish n' stuff...?

 

[Tony7141]

Ok, I guess I didn't look at the details close enough, I agree!

She doesn't have a 1911? The thumb position on her non-grip support hand?

 

[CountryBoy19]

Where is her left index finger? It appears to me that it might be "helping" her right index finger on the trigger... I'm not bashing anybody that takes this grip as a beginner, but for the NRA to be portraying it in a photo is ridiculous...

This is why I hate the NRA... they may be a powerful lobbying organization, but they're really just a bunch of buffoons that are trying to "market" towards firearms enthusiasts... I gave up my membership years ago...

 

[NavyVet]

The nail polish doesn't match the painted letters on her Glock!!!

Does look like a decent grip.... If you're swinging a golf club.

 

[EvilBlackGun]

But didn't let go ...

... of your remarkably expressive talents. It's probably a stock photo anyway, but, yes, potentially injurious.

That's probably exactly what they're banking on.
If that girl had ever REALLY fired a gun like that, she'd have fixed that on her own. Way to go, NRA! Use a prop holding a prop, instead of a real shooterchick.

Exactly.

 

[Sylvain]

They should have gotten your trained monkey for the picture.

 

[ATM]

I think her hair is just supercute...

 

[JetGirl]

I think her hair is just supercute...

I agree with that. And the thing is...she's gonna need her thumbs to fix it!!

 

[KG1]

I think it looks like a pic of Heather Locklear from back in the old "TJ Hooker" days.

Oh wow, I didnt notice that part. She's got 2 fingers on the trigger. That is stupid, but I dont think its worth hating the NRA over it though.

Maybe that's a really heavy trigger.

I cannot say I am surprised with much of anything from the NRA. After having 6 years of a supposedly gun-friendly congress, white house, and supreme court, they sat on their thumbs chanting 'enforce the existing laws' rather than 'repeal the unconstitutional nonsense' and then as soon as Obama gets elected they start rattling/beating on the tin cup screaming 'the sky is falling'. It demonstrated to my satisfaction that they don't give a damn about guns or their owners, just dragging in enough revenue to make payroll. Just like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, they would be out of a job if they solved the problem and it shows.

 

[rambone]

Is that how the NRA teaches shooters to stand?

I am sure she is a model and a studio did the shoot and then off for approval.
Who said that working for the NRA in publicity means you have any gun experience. Hell, Obummer had little if any and he is the fricking pres.
Good catch...horrible grip
