Annette Evans picked up her first gun almost ten years ago "because every girl should know how to shoot." She started as a defensive shooter, became an instructor, then fell in love with competitive shooting. Her passion is the craft of marksmanship, which she pursues as a representative of King Shooters Supply, Grayguns, and Race Street Range. And yes, she finally cleans and maintains her own guns.
