It’s October already and that means it’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Several firearms and firearms accessory manufacturers have special items to help raise money for the cause.
But before that, we want to remind all our readers that, unfortunately, breast cancer can effect anyone. There’s a great deal of information over at National Breast Cancer Foundation, and if you have any questions, we recommend you click on over there. You can find out general information, statistics, information on prevention and detection, and much, much more.
We also scoured the internet and found quite a few gun-related items that you might be interested in. Not only are they firearms-related (which is our favorite thing, of course), but some of the proceeds go to fighting that infamous villain, (everybody “boo”) cancer.
Smith & Wesson Julie Goloski M&P 9mm
First off, we want to start with the Smith & Wesson Model M&P9 JG.

Brownell has developed some products they nickname “Shoots like a Girl”, specifically a line of Signature Series Pink Gun Cases.

These bags range in price from $73.99 – $124.99.
