Shirts
The first batch of ladies’ shirts have been delivered, please post your pictures on social media as you get (and wear) yours.

Trousers
Did you know that ladies shooting UKPSA disciplines can wear their holster belt below their waist? This is a rule relaxation due to the anatomical differences between men and women. The holster belt must still go through a minimum a 3 belt loops to comply with the rules. We have an offer to source some specifically designed and made ladies’ trousers, from a lady shooter in Poland, that have suitable belt loops. Look out for the POLL on the Lady Practical Shooter UK FB Group to order a pair.
