Always sassy and sometimes serious, Gunhilda answers the tough questions that other instructors are unwilling to touch. So when you want to know how to wear a thigh holster without walking around like a bowlegged cowboy, or whether it's okay to track down and shoot the dirty scoundrel who stole the nasturtiums off your front porch, Gunhilda is the one to ask.
Dear Gunhilda,
I'm trying to design a class for women who think it is too dangerous to have a gun in the house. Any suggestions?
Female Pistol Instructor
Dear Instructor,
Wait, what? You want to teach a class specifically intended for people who really do not want to be there? You poor thing!
But perhaps you meant you want to reach people who do want to own firearms, but who have reasonable safety concerns about gun ownership. If that's the case, welcome to the teaching world, because that describes a huge number of beginning gun owners. As you design your class, put most of your energy into showing people how guns work, how to store guns safely, and how to use them wisely. Unless your students really need a psychiatrist rather than a firearms instructor, the rest will take care of itself.

If you have a question for Gunhilda, this is the place to ask. Don't be afraid. She may roar like a grumpy old tiger, but she's really just a kitty cat. (Please don't tell her I said that.)
Or if you prefer, send her an email at gunhilda@corneredcat.com She'll be happy to hear from you! (Yeah, she'll gripe about it for an hour or more, but that's just her way of expressing enthusiasm.)
