Well-dressed and well-armed, these ladies were members of Drexel Institute’s girls rifle club (taken in Washington, DC).
The young lady on the right wearing the leopard coat looks dangerous (and probably a good shot).
According to some additional background on the team, the “Girls’ rifle team of Drexel Institute defeated a picked sharpshooter squad of Philadelphia police in a match.†Hammond, Indiana, Times, 25 February 1926.
Amazing photo.
