Bay Area Women - Check in here
 
Ladies,

It seems like we're developing a group of women in various parts of the San Francisco Bay Area who want to shoot together.

Please check in here, so you can find each other? It will help me make a case for getting the Bay Area its own official CGN Chapter.

Please say where you are, like East Bay, Peninsula, Marin, San Jose area, just a general idea so people know who is near them.

Bugguts 05-09-2013 9:35 PM

Fairfield/Benicia area. Crazy mom with crazy kids, a crazy husband, two crazy dogs and according the Biden I have an arsenal and could be a terrorist. Hell I've been terrorizing my family for years so nothing new about that.... Oh wait, NOW I am a terrorist with an ammo stash... LOL

Kristin650 05-17-2013 11:51 PM

Hi all! I've been shooting about ten years, mostly pistol and shotgun--just getting into carbines and rifles as of late. Shoot mostly at Los Altos Rod and Gun or Reeds. Live in central San Mateo County.

Maggs 05-27-2013 10:30 PM

Hi,

I just registered and I'm located in Cupertino, CA.

I am a beginner and hope everyone is patient with me. :o

I am a quick learner so no worries. ;)

Cheers!
Maggie

Maggs 05-27-2013 10:32 PM

I'm looking to buy a pistol for starters. Not sure what I want yet though.

movie zombie 05-28-2013 6:43 AM

hi, Kristen and Maggs!

Kristen, I use the los altos range the most but mostly for pistols.

Maggs, there's lots of info here in the Ladies Forum [and elsewhere on calguns] re pistols and "starting". many will suggest taking a class. and all will say handle and shoot as many as you can prior to buying.

also, checkout corneredcat.com
some of the best info for women by a woman!

12:13 05-30-2013 12:36 PM

Not a female but was at Los Altos this past Sunday. I was pleasantly surprised to see quite a few female shooters. Some were with their SO's or parents and some with their girlfriends (or sister, couldn't tell). Even saw a solo female shooter. Pure awesome! :thumbsup:

CalGunMom 06-06-2013 7:48 PM

I'm in Santa Clara/Cupertino and very interested in a women's shooting group. I've been talking to The Well Armed Woman and have hooked up with at least four other women here in the South Bay who are also interested. Lets get something going! There is a group in Sacramento that we could have tournaments with, which would be fun once the newbies get trained.

Kristin650 06-07-2013 5:53 AM

PM sent to CalGunMom--I'm up for the women's shooting group!

LittleOldLady 06-19-2013 4:56 AM

I live in the Central valley and commuting long distances is out for me. Is there anyone who lives around the Tracy/Modesto area?
If so, I would be interested in meeting down in this area.

movie zombie 06-19-2013 6:16 AM

welcome, littleoldlady!

OHOD recently moved to Manteca but she hasn't been participating on calguns hardly at all since them move!

you might check with these folks: http://www.mantecasportsmen.com/dev/

they have programs specifically for women and you might meet a shooting friend there.

Laukaouda 07-06-2013 9:37 AM

I'm in far east bay Mountain House. I've only shot pistols. My pistol of choice is my Sig Sauer P229 Platinum Elite.

raddogz 07-09-2013 11:19 AM

Hi everyone - I hail from San Francisco and usually go to either Jackson Arms or to the Chabot gun range

movie zombie 07-09-2013 3:18 PM

raddogz 07-09-2013 4:14 PM

I've been around the range as much <Sigh> I promise to be around a bit more :D I've taken to bbq with my new kamado grill.

movie zombie 07-09-2013 4:32 PM

kamado grill: some how it sounds like a dragon mouthpiece!

CalGunMom 07-22-2013 11:07 PM

Anybody interested in going to Reed's this Thursday evening (7/25) around 6pm?? I have a new HK P-30 that I need to get some practice with.

Elena 07-25-2013 7:21 AM

Hi I live in the East Bay Fremont area ... I am a newbie and have only been shooting for less than a year and I've been going shooting at Target Masters, Metcalfe and Chabot Gun ranges. I like the outdoor ranges better because of my rifle.

movie zombie 07-25-2013 7:33 AM

welcome to the Ladies Forum and to Calguns in general!
I believe there are several East Bay shooters [female] that participate here.
admittedly, i'm not East Bay but I've never heard of Metcalfe.

so, what pistol[s]/rifle[s] are your favs?

Metcalfe is in San Jose it's also called Santa Clara Valley Rifle Club ... I have a Sig Sauer M400 , XDm, and a Ruger 10/22. My favorite is probably the Sig. I have a lot of fun shooting that at the range. Whats yours?

movie zombie 08-22-2013 8:44 AM

mostly Los Altos Rod & Gun Club's range up on skyline.
sometimes Markley's in Watsonville.
the only firearm we have in common is the Ruger 10/22!

BonnieB 08-27-2013 3:29 PM

I'm shooting Los Altos on Thursday morning, August 29. 5'6" redhead, if anyone comes out.

Shooting solo, entirely willing to be awesome....

Iconic Industries 10-01-2013 1:41 PM

Contra Costa County and new to shooting. Would love to get together with other women and go to the range. :coolgleamA:

fierceblossoming 10-13-2013 11:45 PM

Hi!
 
Hello Bay Area Shooting Women!

I just wanted to introduce myself. I have been on the forums for a while, but have mostly just lurked :)

Just wanted to stop in the Ladies' forum and say hello.

:)

kate

movie zombie 10-14-2013 8:05 AM

hello Iconic!
and also to fierce!
lurking can be educational.......;):D

GoldenSG 10-26-2013 8:13 PM

Hi all! Contra Costa here. Brand new to shooting, will pick up my first shotgun in a few days. I'd like to do some skeet and also closer range (for HD) shooting in Richmond and Martinez. I would be interested in getting a group together.

movie zombie 10-27-2013 8:12 AM

howdy! not in your area but others are.

LittleOldLady 10-27-2013 8:41 AM

Hello from the Tracy/Modesto/Turlock area

Lil Stinkpot 11-06-2013 9:01 PM

Hello from South San Jose area.

Fairly new shooter, been at it since May-ish. See ya down at Metcalf 200 or 10th street!

molly 11-28-2013 6:40 AM

howdy from north oakland :) i have been shooting since '96. i don't own a lot of firearms; mossberg shotgun, browning blr (takedown) .308, glock 22 (.40cal) and a Springfield Armory 1911 GI model. My 1911 is my favorite :)

I usually shoot at San Leandro or Jackson Arms.

I love teaching others to shoot. I'll try to keep an eye on this thread to see if a group is going. I also have a friend who I usually invite to newby shooter events because he is a great teacher and brings a lot of his guns for others to try.

Lately, I have been spending a lot more time with my compound bow (Mission Craze) and want to start bowhunting soon. Anyone who wants to go to Chabot or SFarchers for some target practice should pm me :)

SmilingPup 09-12-2014 8:28 PM

Hi everyone
I'm in Contra Costa County and pretty new to shooting.
Not too many ladies posting on this thread, I know there are more women out there.
I wanted to bump so we can keep it going.

poodle_misty 09-24-2014 3:45 PM

Hey everyone!
I've been lurking around this site a while and haven't taken the time to meet the ladies. So hey! I'm in Sonoma County. Hopefully this thread starts to come alive again! I'd love to see if there are any ladies in my area that would like to go shooting.

movie zombie 09-24-2014 5:10 PM

msinger2012 12-15-2014 12:09 PM
