Nearly 13 million Americans have permits to carry concealed handguns, which is triple the number from just nine years ago, and a good portion of them are women.
The latest numbers from the Ohio division of the National Rifle Association, which have only been released to News 5, show there are 38 women instructors in Northeast Ohio, 526 in the state that's more than doubled over the past decade, and that’s not including private organizations.
Fredericks and other instructors say part of the growth is due to a desire for education and an industry that's becoming more inclusive.

"I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something.
And because I can not do everything, I will not refuse to do the something I can do.
What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of GOD, I will do."- Edward Everett Hale (descendant of Nathan Hale)
