Meet Shyanne Roberts, a 10-year-old competitive shooter who is out to prove something: Children with guns don't always mean disaster.
"I want to be an inspiration to other kids and be a leader," said the girl. "Kids and guns don't always mean bad things happen."

Shyanne competes alongside junior shooters, who are participants younger than 18, and even adults. Last year, she beat out adult women to place second in the Women's Division of the New Jersey Ruger Rimfire Challenge.
On October 31, she will square off against 200 of the top women shooters at the Brownell's Lady 3-Gun Pro-Am Challenge in Covington, Georgia. Shyanne is the youngest competitive shooter registered at the female-only event, according to the match director.

Shyanne may not be a professional, but she is a rare breed. "At 10 years old, it's tough to be doing anything well, as your muscles aren't quite developed yet. That's pretty impressive," said Taylor, when he heard someone that young was beating adults in competition.

"It's 95% males that get involved (in USPSA), but the funny thing is that girls tend to do better than the boys, in general," he said. "I think it's that they're more open to coaching."

Shyanne participates in several types of shooting styles, including USPSA, 3-Gun, Action Rifle and Steel Silhouette. USPSA and 3-Gun are two of about seven major styles within the sport of competitive shooting. Participants use shotguns, rifles or pistols, or a combination of different firearms, depending on the shooting style, Taylor said.

When looking at target shooting across all the styles, there's been a 67% increase in the number of women participating in the past decade. More than 6.4 million women competed in 2012, compared with 3.8 million women in 2003, according to the National Sporting Goods Association's annual sports participation reports.

From what I have been reading from her dad's post on PA Firearm Owners Ass forum. He is in the process of moving out of New Jersey so she can continue to grow in the sport.
