12 year old Trinity is a Gun Wielding Badass
Trinity is a 12 year old girl who trains with her father Mike. I came across Mike and his daughter in this video where Trinity is practicing for a scenario where her father is incapacitated and she needs to draw his weapon, defend herself and her father.
Here is a video of Trinity running a drill with an AR pistol and Glock
The degree of precision and movement she demonstrated on this drill was extraordinary for a 12 year old girl. Shooting on the move, heal toe, with trigger reset after each shot. Transition to hand gun and getting the shot off as soon as she had front site picture, moving to cover with her handgun facing threat as she ducked to cover, reloading her primary flawlessly, inching out from cover slowly so to not expose herself, staying on target during the ascent. Full scan and In no rush to recover. FLAWLESS don’t think some of our officers could demonstrate this level of competency. Wish I got a close up of the target. Everything was in
Here she is running a pistol drill on steel. Drawing a mag while keeping eyes on target, manipulating the firearm and moving off the line of force. Very well done.

Anybody know what holster she is using on her leg?
As a father who for many years has enjoyed owning and shooting multitudes of firearms of every imaginable type with my three sons, I definitely find these to be commendable skills for a 12 yr old. Unfortunately the author of this article appears to be in possession of the parenting disposition of a moron. His evaluation of her skill level is that she now qualifies as a "badass". I really don't care how he meant it, badass does not apply, nor should it ever with regard to firearms. This is the sort of brainless description that feeds ammo to second amendment opponents. Lets say we clone this child and now we have 100 little wannabe badass little girls, all with firearms, who all think because of adult encouragement that they should aspire to be badasses rather than responsible shooters and athletes. Sounds great doesn't it? Teaching shooting and tactics to children is admirable and when they excel it is commendable but only a dumass would encourage a child that it is the road to becoming a badass and acting out with firearms is a virtue or admire it when, God forbid, this is what happens. The juvenile disposition displayed by this adult author is never a good aspiration or even a good suggestion from an adult in the presence of a child and certainly never when firearm are involved. I have to ask why the hell would any responsible adult ever encourage this attitude in a child. After viewing these clips, I suspect that it is this little girl who could teach this author a thing or two, not about firearms, but about the responsible presentation of her work.
