description This article analyzes the apprenticeship and training in the use of physical force by members of the Police of the Province of Buenos Aires. The study of this issue is linked in this text to the meaningsof gender. The gender becomes relevant approaching or distancing, sealing or enabling certain police’s experiences. This paper explores two native theories about learning the use of force. The first one indicates that the proper use of weapons is conditioned by the responsibility and safety of the bearer to the gun. The second emphasizes on the marksmanship and the physical abilities of thepolicemen. This article shows one of the possible relations between femininity and the use of physical force. For this objective we collect circumstances in which women appear as perpetrators and users of weapons and techniques for physical coercion. All circumstances were compiled in ethnographic fieldwork in police precincts of the Province of Buenos Aires.
