WASHINGTON - Marylandian -- As the pandemic was a devastating and scary time for many, especially women throughout the DMV (Washington, DC, Maryland & Virginia area), the impact of COVID-19 brought on a surge of calls, from women ages 21 to senior citizens 65+, who expressed an urgent need to learn how to protect themselves, their homes and their families with a firearm. Many of these women knew little about handguns and handling a gun. The vast majority of them had never been to a gun range, but when they did a Google search for gun safety training "Boom Boom Firearms Training" came highly rated with a 5.0, and women-owned, they felt safe that they could get the tools needed to be successful gun owners. The Future of Guns and Gun Control are always changing, but what is clear is that every person who can legally own a gun should be prepared in case of emergencies. That's why Mary's classes are highly sought after.

They provide everything from basic firearms safety training up to advance and tactical classes; Boom Boom also offers exceptional Self-Defense Classes for Women, who may not be able to carry a firearm for protection, but having the skills to protect themselves anywhere you go is crucial.
