Laura Evans of Legally Armed
First and foremost, Laura Evans is a mother. Born and raised in a small rural town in upstate New York, she wasn’t exposed to guns in her childhood or early adult life. In fact, while her upbringing consisted of outdoor activities like fishing, hiking, and camping, guns weren’t familiar to her until she began working in the shooting sports industry.
From Laura: “Once an ‘anti-gun’ mother, I’ve grown into a passionate supporter of the Second Amendment. I spent too many years not listening to my heart, so now I’m making up for it by building bridges of communication that I hope transcend the ignorance and fear so many people profess.”
