AR-15s are nothing short of an amazing piece of machinery. These versatile weapons have surged in popularity with no signs of slowing down. In fact, one out of every five firearms purchased in the United States is an AR-style rifle, making the number of ARs in the United States close to 20 million. Part of what is fueling the surge is the interest of women in owning an AR-15. In general, women are a growing part of gun ownership in America, fueled by a desire to protect their families and as a growing interest in shooting as recreation and as a sport.

REASONS WHY EVERY WOMAN SHOULD OWN AN AR-15
Great Size for Women
If you’ve ever carried a heavy rifle, shotgun, or handgun for that matter while hiking around in the woods for a while, you know that it can be tiring work and can wear you out. When choosing a firearm, especially one for self-defense, competition shooting, or recreational shooting, you want one that is not too heavy, but can still pack a punch when needed. The AR-15 is relatively lightweight, making it easy for women to carry. It also comes in a shorter 16.5 inch barrel length, making the firearm less heavy as well. The stock is adjustable, so women can adjust the AR-15 to fit their size and build. In sum, the AR-15 is a gun that has been designed to fit any shooter well, no matter gender or size.
Low Comparable Recoil
Let’s face it, having a bruised shoulder from recoil when you have been shooting for a while is not exactly fun. You can’t lay on that shoulder, and it even hurts when your bra strap rubs it. In fact, many women are put off from shooting bigger caliber handguns, rifles, and shotguns because of the recoil. It makes shooting not fun at all. Due to the semi-automatic action of the AR-15, much of the recoil is absorbed as more bullets are fired. This leaves less of an impact on the shoulder and makes it easier when moving along the face. Furthermore, AR-15s come in .223 or 5.56 mm, which is a smaller caliber bullet that thus makes less of a recoil in the first place. And since AR-15s are extremely customizable, a shooter can further alter the firearm to leave as little impact as possible on the shooter, making AR-15s great for female shooters.
Customizable
Many people (both men and women) own an AR-15 because they are customizable. This allows the shooter the ability to build their AR-15 exactly how they want it, suiting them like a glove. When you are able to make something fit your exact needs and style perfectly, you will use it more and enjoy it more. One of the most important things about shooting is that it has to be comfortable or you won’t do it, especially for women. With an AR-15, you can make your firearm exactly how you want it so that it fits you like a glove.
AR-15s can be painted for your taste, so a pink or purple AR-15 is a common sight on the gun range. They are super easy to take apart and reassemble within seconds, which allows for the ultimate in accessories. There are numerous AR-15 accessories available on the market, such as those that Bootleg offers. Our Bootleg PicMod Handguards, Bolt Carrier Group, and Upper Receivers can truly make your AR-15 shine. Browse our selection online today!
Versatile
There’s a good reason that the AR-15 is the most popular centerfire rifle sold in America: it’s versatility. Besides the fact it’s easy to shoot, customizable, and a good size for everyone, an AR-15 can be used for almost any shooting need, from self-defense and competitive shooting to hunting and recreational use. Plus, let’s be honest: shooting a semi-automatic weapon is plain fun. You may need to upgrade to a higher caliber bullet if you are hunting big game, but an AR-15 is most definitely up to the task. About the only thing you can’t do with an AR-15 is conceal carry, but they do make AR pistols for that!
