Ladies Armed Shooting Society

Ladies Armed Shooting Society (LASS) is a women-focused shooting club based in Tucson, Arizona, dedicated to promoting safe firearm handling and advancing pistol shooting skills through monthly competitive matches.

Founded with a mission to be a steward of the firearms sports, Ladies Armed Shooting Society provides a supportive community where women can develop marksmanship, build confidence, and enjoy recreational shooting in a positive atmosphere. The organization emphasizes safety, skill development, and sportsmanlike conduct.

LASS hosts monthly matches on the 4th Saturday of each month at the Tucson Rifle Club (18300 West Ajo Highway, Tucson, AZ 85735). Events run from 7:30 AM setup through 10:30 AM teardown, featuring 3-4 courses of fire designed to challenge and develop shooter abilities.

Participants must have formal firearms training and demonstrated safe gun handling skills. Eligible shooters include:

• •Graduates of Ladies First Safety Training or Babes With Bullets programs
• •USPSA/IDPA certified shooters
• •Individuals with documented formal beginning pistol training

Shooters without prior training must complete a basic pistol course before participation. This is not a beginner's course—foundational skills are required.

LASS utilizes current USPSA Handgun Competition Rules as guidelines for scoring, safety, and conduct. Scores are provided to individual shooters but not publicly posted, allowing participants to focus on personal performance goals rather than rankings. The emphasis is on achieving individual best results while building skills progressively.

For those interested in joining LASS, basic pistol orientation courses can be scheduled. The organization provides extensive equipment recommendations and maintains partnerships with quality shooting gear suppliers including Brownells, Midway USA, Dillon Precision, Safariland, and Blade-Tech.
