Aw, Valentine’s Day. Chocolates and Cupid with his little bow. Yeah, no thanks. For some of us, this holiday after all the other holidays can be a bit of a drag. But if you have a shooter in your life, here’s a handy Gun Valentine’s Day Gift Guide, as we highlight some great ways to tell the shooter you love, that hey, you actually care about what they care about.
Gun Valentine’s Day Gift Guide
Valentine’s Day on the Range
First up, take him or her to the range! The couple that shoots and trains together, stays together. Not just a fun outing, it might just give you the skills to save your loved one’s life. Every Valentine’s Day, ranges around the country offer various types of couple-themed shooting nights. You might even get to sling some lead at some heart-shaped targets. Regardless, it’s a great way to maybe introduce your partner to the shooting sports, and a great way to spend this goofy holiday together.
Check out a full report over at PDW on Valentine’s Day Shooting, complete with links to ranges in your area.
