Shoot Like A Girl (SLG2) is cranking up the empowerment dial with a powerhouse stop on its 2026 Grand Safety Tour: Bass Pro Shops in Daytona Beach, Florida, from February 12-15. This free, family-friendly extravaganza isn’t your average range day—it’s a full-spectrum immersion featuring state-of-the-art FATS simulators from InVeris for safe, realistic firearms training, hands-on archery sessions, and live product demos from heavy hitters like Beretta, GLOCK, Vortex Optics, and Springfield Armory. Picture this: moms, daughters, and entire families ditching the couch for trigger time, all under the massive Bass Pro roof, where the scent of leather and gun oil mixes with the thrill of first shots. It’s SLG2’s signature blend of fun and fundamentals, proving that safety education doesn’t have to feel like a lecture hall.
What makes this Daytona pit stop a game-changer for the 2A community? In a cultural landscape where anti-gun narratives dominate headlines, events like this are stealth superweapons, normalizing firearms as tools for confidence and self-reliance—especially for women, who stats show are the fastest-growing demographic in shooting sports (hello, NSSF data: female participation up 35% in recent years). By partnering with Bass Pro’s massive foot traffic and brands that dominate shelves from Alaska to Alabama, SLG2 isn’t just training; it’s cultivating a new generation of vocal 2A advocates. Think about the ripple: a kid who nails their first bullseye with a GLOCK sim today could be the voter blocking confiscation schemes tomorrow. This tour stop amplifies that momentum, countering the guns are scary myth with tangible wins—zero live ammo risk, pro instructors, and that addictive I can do this high.
The implications? Massive. As red-flag laws and training mandates creep in from blue-state playbooks, grassroots efforts like SLG2’s Grand Safety Tour build unassailable public support by democratizing access. Daytona Beach, smack in election-swing Florida, positions this as prime real estate for shifting hearts and minds ahead of 2026 midterms. Pro-2A warriors, mark your calendars—this isn’t optional; it’s an investment in the family’s right to bear arms, one empowered shooter at a time. Who’s road-tripping with me?
