Tucson Pink Pistols Monthly Meeting

About

This monthly gathering brings together LGBTQIA+ gun owners and their allies for a casual meeting focused on firearms education and community building. The group describes itself as open to members from both inside and outside the queer community, with a welcoming tone aimed at people who are new to firearms as well as experienced shooters. Meetings cover topics like basic firearms safety, handling, and shooting proficiency, and the chapter also offers Stop the Bleed training, a skill set for responding to severe bleeding in an emergency. The setting is a city council office meeting room rather than a range, so this part of the gathering is about conversation, planning, and education rather than live fire. After the meeting wraps up, most attendees head together to a nearby shooting range for a group range day, which is listed separately since it happens at a different address. Someone who only wants the educational and social portion of the gathering can attend just this piece without going to the range afterward. Newcomers are encouraged to reach out ahead of time through the group's website or phone number, since meeting rooms can occasionally change and it helps to confirm the week's plans in advance.
