Shoot Like A Girl (SLG2) is hitting the road again, and gun owners in the Southwest should mark their calendars: the powerhouse women's firearms training program is rolling into Bass Pro Shops in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on April 25–26, 2026, as part of its 2026 Grand Safety Tour. This free event isn't your average range day—it's a full-spectrum empowerment fest led exclusively by all-women instructors, complete with a mobile shooting range equipped with FATS military-grade simulators for safe, hyper-realistic training, archery coaching, and hands-on product demos from top brands in firearms, optics, and outdoor gear. SLG2 has a proven track record of shattering stereotypes, having introduced over 150,000 women and girls to the shooting sports since 2007, with retention rates that make range owners salivate—many first-timers become lifelong enthusiasts and concealed carriers. What makes this stop a big deal for the 2A community? New Mexico's a battleground state where anti-gun forces push hard, yet grassroots support for self-defense rights is surging—voters there rejected red-flag laws in recent sessions, signaling a pro-2A shift. SLG2's arrival at a massive Bass Pro Shops (a retail juggernaut that's no stranger to family-friendly gun culture) amplifies that momentum, targeting the untapped demographic of women who polls show are increasingly favoring firearm ownership for protection (up 25% in the last decade per NSSF data). By blending fun, safety-first instruction with cutting-edge sims that mimic real-world scenarios, SLG brings novices into the fold without the intimidation factor, directly countering the left's guns are scary narrative. Expect ripple effects: more empowered moms, daughters, and partners hitting local ranges, boosting FFL sales, and fortifying the next generation of Second Amendment defenders in a purple state that could tip redder. This isn't just an event—it's a strategic play in the culture war for hearts, minds, and triggers. If you're in the Land of Enchantment or road-tripping, don't sleep on it; bring the family, gear up, and watch the 2A army grow one confident shooter at a time. SLG2's formula works because it prioritizes safety and joy over politics, proving that when women lead the charge, the opposition crumbles. Albuquerque, get ready to shoot like pros.
