Ready...aim...

Bang. Sorry, didn’t mean to scare you. It’s just the best way I knew how to greet Monday. Now, before we begin, I’d like to note that I in no way condone violence. I don’t own guns. I’ve never shot a gun. And I’m all for gun control. Suck it, NRA. Having said that, there is also something unspeakably sexy about a woman with a gun – like our gal Mariska. We’re going to ignore old Sigmund and all his talk of willy envy. Balderdash. This is just about power, and power has nothing inherently to do with willies. So there. What can I say, I’m a sucker for a gal with steely determination and killer aim – especially when she is not pointed at me. Happiness is a warm gun, being held by a hot lady.

  3. YES! Seriously, all for gun control... so why do I love a lady with a gun so.much???

  4. I didn't read the post for a while, because putting Mariska first is dangerous.

    I stared for a very long, long, long, long time.

  5. Oooh, hotness! And from Scandinavia we have Noomi Rapace: http://tinyurl.com/ndw579
    Noomi plays a bisexual character called Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish movie "Men Who Hate Women". This fall we'll see Rapace/Salander in "The Girl Who Plays With Fire", and there will be lots of guns.

    There's also something sexy about women who smoke and women driving a car. And women with tools, like drills, hammers and such.

    So, a woman drives to a parking lot, gets out of car wearing a tank top and smoking a cigarette, picks up her tools from the back of the car... That would kill me instantly.

    (Disclaimer: otherwise I find smoking a filthy habit.)

    That's the best Monday I have ever seen- and they weren't even naked! Damn, you had be at 'gun'.

    Lena Headey is surely SOMETHING ELSE! *fans self*

  10. Hmm, in this one, only Anna Torv, Lena Headey, and Jodie Foster really do anything for me. And to think I used to be such a femme-only kinda gal.

  11. I'm all for gun control too. If, by that, you mean "a steady hand".

    What about Holly Hunter ?! As Grace in 'saving grace' she sure knows how to be a hot ladycop...

  13. I'm so with you on this one DS ... I'm rabidly pro gun-control and wish guns were so rare that the most frequently one would see them would be in a museum.

    However, I will admit, a woman wielding a gun, in an experienced manner, whether it be a pistol, rifle, or whatever ... downright insanely sexy :)

  14. I know it's bad that, as a super long time (like forever) Jodie Foster fan, I still haven't seen The Brave One (blame it on letting my date pick the film when The Brave One was out and she'd already seen it so she pick some lame on instead). Anyway, since you insist on continuously posting hot pics of Jodie from this flick, I guess I must find a way to see it...heh.

  15. Great post for the beginning of the week (or Tuesday for us down under ;) ). That photo of Mariska never fails to make me weak in the knees.

    Have you been following Olivia Williams new film An Education? I had the pleasure of seeing it today, and I think that her playing a bookish teacher complete with tortoise shell glasses warrants a Weekend Crush sequel. http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb88/

  16. So glad that Jodie Foster was on the list. As I was scrolling down I was getting worried that she had somehow been missed.

    Hottest woman with a gun, perhaps ever. =)

  17. So anonymous's comment:"So, a woman drives to a parking lot, gets out of car wearing a tank top and smoking a cigarette, picks up her tools from the back of the car... That would kill me instantly." Must see Gina Gershon in "Bound". She has all the elements that are required and then some. There are a couple of scenes in that movie that are volcanic hot.

    Sadly, Gina isn't mentioned here. Does she not use a gun in "Bound"?

  18. I wrote a similar blog a ways back about how I abhor guns, but when Linda Hamilton cocks that shotgun with one hand at the end of T2... oof. And I ordinarily dont even really find LH that attractive.

  19. Are you kidding me?!?! Where is Pepa (Laura Sánchez) from Los Hombres De Paco... she NEEDS to be on this list!

  26. I agree with chels, how can you have a post about hot women w/ guns and not include the gun wielding master of them all Angie. AJ has probable donned more guns than all these ladies combines, especially since she is a fan of two at a time!

  31. Excellent post. But you really should have included Sophia Bush in the Hitcher. That last scene of her with the gun... hot!

    Beautiful.
    Next, how about women smoking? Smoking cigarettes, cigars, smoking hot. A filthy habit, yes. Deadly in the end, yes. But crazy sexy? yes yes yes.

    No matter what the subject, thanks for the pics of the lovely ladies.

  34. It brings a tear to my eye that Pam Grier was included, in all of her Coffy/Foxy Brown heavenly glory! Now that was a woman who could wield a six-shooter *and* sport some cool threads while doing so!

  37. Including Mariska is going to be doubly appropriate come the fall, if this post on the SVU production blog is to be believed.

    mariska hargitay doing pretty much anything is photo worthy, list worthy, just WORTHY.

    As far as gun totin' babes, besides the lovely Det. Olivia Benson, I would have to add Carrie Moss as Trinity in the Matrix trilogy, and Sigourney Weaver as Ripley in the Aliens series.
