Hi,
All is great for the gals and I. We have been very busy this summer. We are thankful for every class that we are able to teach. Men and women are realizing how important their safety is, and doing something about it!
This months newsletter is simple. A message from Hanae and the introduction of Jesse, a fabulous local gunsmith!
Until next time......

A Note From Jesse:
Jesse "Slim" Teague
I have been fond of guns all my life. I attended the Lassen College gunsmithing program in 2006 and then again in August 2008 to get Law Enforcement Armorers School (L.E.A.S.) full automatic certified. I have been doing freelance gunsmithing in Northern Nevada since January 2008.
I enjoy mostly working on, collecting and shooting surplus military rifles, as well as an array of handguns. I gear my business more toward the repair and minor customizing side of things. I feel there are enough gunsmiths out there that can build you a complete custom rifle from scratch, but there are very few that can do a repair, big or small, in a timely manner. That's where I come in. I won't take five weeks to do a job that takes one or two days, and in most cases I can have your gun back to you the next day, I am very flexible when it comes to time frames and can work around your schedule when necessary.
I realize most of the folks reading this will be carrying a gun for their personal protection and I don't want to deprive them of their gun any longer than I have to.

A special message from Hanae:
Always remember that safety is number one. Don't forget that keeping your gun or guns clean is just as important. If you go out and shoot and know that you won’t be shooting for a month or so, clean your gun before store it. The gunpowder and lead is very harmful to your gun and it causes the gun to rust and not work properly.
I recommend for quick clean try Birchwood Casey’s Barricade. It comes in a spray form that is easy to use. It will protect your gun from rust. It also lubricates the gun. Always lubricate the gun after cleaning. An easy way to remember what to lubricate is: metal on metal and anything that touches metal needs to have lubrication. A good lubricant is MiliTec. It’s a synthetic lubricate that doesn’t gum up or gather dirt. I really love it!
I would also like to take this time to thank Vicki for bringing me on the team to help instruct. I love seeing women empower themselves and learn safe ways to protect themselves and the ones they love. Vicki’s classes teach everything that I have been very passionate about from a very young age. I lost my mother at two years old to a crime that we stress can happen to anyone women, man or child.
Recently, Vicki came to me and said she would like to donate $5.00 from our Women’s Shooting Academy hats to a charity of my choice in the memory of my mom. I couldn't’t believe it! I thought to myself, Vicki must an angle that my mom brought to me.
So I am pleased to announce that in the memory of mom, Dari Mansfield, the Women’s Shooting Academy is donating $5.00 from the sale of each hat to The National Center for Missing Adults. Thank you Vicki for giving my family, especially my dad, and I the chance to keep my moms memory alive and strong.
