I work in a student computer lab at a university,,,
One of our new student workers mentioned interest in shooting,,,
So right after work we are hitting the outdoor range at my rifle & pistol club.
She was specifically talking about getting her carry permit,,,
So I think I will take my Bersa Thunder .22 and .380.
Usually for a new shooter I start with an SA revolver,,,
Then work the way through a DA/SA revolver,,,
After that a SA target semi to a SD semi.
But today I'm going to bypass the traditional methodology,,,
I'm just going to start her with a nice SD semi-auto,,,
.22 to start with for low recoil then .380 for later.
I will take my pair of Ruger 22/45's with us,,,
But they are just for a back-up plan,,,
I probably won't even uncase them.
For me I'm just taking the new-to-me H&R 922 I just scored,,,
I haven't had a chance to really try the gun out,,,
I'll go old school while she goes modern.
She has shot some .22 rifle with her dad before,,,
This will be her first handgun experience.
I'll let you know how she does.
