The NRA Women 5th Annual Ladies Pistol Project wrapped up in late October 2023, with 47 women firing a selection of .380 ACP caliber and 9mm semi-automatic pistols—19 in total. The event was filmed for American Rifleman TV, airing on Outdoor Channel. The first episode, which aired on Wednesday, Jan. 3, focused on the .380s, and the second part, which airs on Wednesday, Jan. 10. expands into the 9 mms. Check out the preview here. And don't worry, if you are unable to catch them on the first run, they will air again in early summer of 2024, and will then be available right here on this website.
