Ronda Rousey has come out of hiding to apply for a concealed carry permit at a Las Vegas gun store.
The MMA fighter has kept a low profile since her embarrassing defeat last month.
But the 29-year-old was spotted with her boyfriend Travis Browne on Sunday during their visit The Range 702 gun store, in Las Vegas, where she undertook a special course required to get a concealed carry permit, sources told TMZ.

Rousey also visited the range for a little shooting practice using a blue Glock 43 9mm pistol. However, she will have to be patient as the law requires her to wait for 90 days before the permit arrives in the mail.
The couple appeared laid back as they arrived at the store, with Rousey wearing a grey T-shirt, black leggings and boots, while Browne was in jeans and a T-shirt.
It’s the first time Rousey has been seen out in public since her big loss to Amanda Nunes.

Nunes was declared the winner in under a minute after delivering a vicious beating at UFC 207 in Las Vegas.
It is unconfirmed if Rousey will return to the ring, after many have called for her retirement after her 48-second defeat, including her own mother.
The first American woman to win an Olympic medal in judo, Rousey is known for her arrogance in the ring and has previously said she could defeat everyone in her division with ‘one arm tied behind my back’.
She received a tirade of abuse on social media following her defeat to Nunes, including from her opponent herself, who tweeted a photoshopped image of herself holding the championship belt while pushing a stroller with Rousey, as a baby, inside of it.
Rousey’s mom, AnnMaria De Mars, admitted after the match last month that she wanted her daughter to retire a ‘long time ago’.

Other than a prepared statement, the only response she’d made to the fight was in an Instagram post, which said: ‘And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life’

Even if she does decide to return to fighting, Rousey cannot get back in the ring until February 14 due to a 45-day medical suspension.
Although Rousey hasn’t decided yet whether or not she’ll return to fighting, she also hasn’t announced her retirement from the sport.
Rousey’s comeback fight against Nunes ended a 13-month absence that followed her first career loss to Holly Holm in November 2015, after which she revealed she had suicidal thoughts.
She said: ‘I was down in the corner [of the medical room], and I was like, ‘What am I anymore if I’m not this?’ I was literally sitting there and thinking about killing myself,’
‘In that exact second I’m like, ‘I’m nothing.’
As if suffering a career shattering loss wasn’t enough, her new home was vandalized with indecipherable black graffiti earlier this month.
Rousey was spotted at her Venice Beach home, still bearing some of the bruises from her fight, checking out the damage.
