The Ashley Update: In Washington D.C. and New York

Hlebinsky, who previously worked at the Smithsonian is exactly the kind of ambassador the shooting community needs. Torrentially well informed, passionate to the point of geekery, and blessed with a wicked sense of humor, she can swill whiskey and smoke cigars while holding forth on black powder muskets until your eyes glaze over. Spreading the gospel of responsible firearms ownership has never been more important, and being able to demystify an inanimate object while educating the public about its role in the nation’s history goes a long way toward countering negative publicity.

This week, Ashley travels to Washington D.C. and New York. While in New York she visits the Metropolitan Museum of Art and shows us some of the firearms in their collection. One very rare item is a Tiffany Winchester Lever Action rifle.
