The only thing that makes one wonder would be is this:

"My livelihood depends on the performance of this gun and I'm anxious to start my new relationship with Taurus. I look forward to promoting them, as well as shooting sports to new shooters

Looks like she's as good as broke, then.

Hope they're paying Matt Duff well...

And baby Jesus wept...


What's next, Dave Sevigny shooting for Bersa?

I know it's sad, chauvinistic, and completely superficial, but more women involved in shooting that looked like her could really help the cause to get more people involved in the shooting sports in general.

Maybe.

A national TV commercial would do more, or shows on major networks at times of day that actually reach a lot of people.

I have yet to show a video to someone who asked about our sport who did not instantly want to see more. Anti-gun people aside, of course...

The hard part is convincing people to get over their ego and come out to try it. It's not hard to understand why most that sack up and give it a shot stick with it for a while-- they are interested enough before even trying to love it, or they're not worried about not winning right away because they know they will be eventually.

I doubt I will beating any of you f**kers anytime in the near future! But, you are right! It REALLY is a kick in the ass!

I would surmise, many just don't know where to see it, where to go, who to talk to, and how easy it is to get involved; as the biggest hindrance to a larger participating following.

This stuff ain't exactly cheap either.

Who the heck is "Duff"......I thought she was single

Matt Duff, her co-host on "Friends of the NRA" or whatever. She wasted no time, IOW...

I, uh... *guess* he was a pitcher in the Majors. Although across an 8 year career, he saw 5.2 innings, gave up 3 runs, and had something like a 4.75 ERA and nearly a full 2 WHIP. He lasted a whole month, IOW-- nearly 3x as many walks as SOs. I think he was passed around a bunch of teams, but he only hit the mound for the Cardinals in the early 2000's. He's from Mississippi I believe, and while not nearly as old as her past (cheating) hubby, is still nearly 15 years her senior.

Suffice it to say, he didn't have any diamond studded contracts back then. I think he may charter hunting/fishing/both trips or some such these days? Dunno, I don't keep up with that as much as I used to keep up with baseball.

As a Glock guy I hate to see her go. And the whole thing was over the fact that Glock would not let her put a secondary sponsor's logo on her competition jersey

I dunno about that. Her ex- hubby was the epicenter of the whole Glock shooting team fiasco. Not to re-hash that again, but I am glad she distanced herself from all of that crap.

 

[tupperware9mm]

Yea your right, I don't stay on top of all the drama but remember someone explaining it to me.

Hey, if you can cheat on your wife, she can cheat on her hubby, right?!?!

 

[Sin-ster]

As quickly as they got married after the fact... My guess is that she already was...

ETA-- Not that I blame her, or that he didn't freakin' deserve it.

 

[deafdave3]

Who are we talking about? Hilary Duff?

 

[Turn Key]

Jessie had a good run with Glock.

I do miss this.
