There's a lot of attention now on guns and gun ownership, so Good Day Atlanta's Gurvir Dhindsa visited a gun range in Sandy Springs which prides itself on teaching responsible gun ownership. There's also something else that makes the Sandy Springs Gun Club and Range different: it's women-friendly, and women-owned.
Cara Workman and her sister Robyn Workman Marzullo opened the range two years ago as a business venture. It has become their passion to make women feel welcome in the range. When you walk in, you're likely to see a woman manning the front desk. There are also female instructors.
"When you walk in, you are treated like a person," said Workman. "It doesn't matter if you have never shot before, or if you are a recreational competitive shooter."
While Cara and Robyn say they want their customers to enjoy shooting, the emphasis is on gun safety and education.
"If they are used in a proper and safe way, in a safe environment, and you are taught properly--it's not a bad thing," said Marzullo.
Cara and Robyn recently opened a second gun range in Norcross.
