Kenda Lenseigne is practically the face of Cowboy Mounted Shooting. In this sport, contestants maneuver horses through an obstacle course while firing two .45 caliber single-action revolvers at balloons set along the course.

It is a high-speed, timed spectator contest in which the competitor who rides the fastest with the fewest missed targets wins. With a truck-load of national and world championships under her belt, it's fair to say she is Cowboy Mounted Shooting's most renowned and recognizable competitor! She works with many companies in both the equestrian and firearms industry in endorsements and product development, and features her own signature lines of holsters, guns, saddles, gear at kendalenseigne.com

Chris started 2A Shield so people can better protect their firearms, optics, and other accessories without the hassle of dealing with companies who are not 2A-friendly.
