Arizona Gun Culture

Gary Kohler takes aim at a target 200 yards out during the Long Range Rifle course at Gunsite Academy. “There's different view of guns out here than there is back East,” said Bob Corbin, a former Arizona attorney general and Maricopa County attorney who served as National Rifle Association president in the early 1990s. “People who are here or come from the East are a different breed. Many are coming out to start a new life. It takes courage to do that, and a lot of people don't have it. They'd rather stay home and live with mother. Arizonans, I think, are different. We're more for freedom.”
