[QUOTE="RedTape, post: 1953122, member: 66"] If they can only afford a used Hi-point, I doubt they can afford a carry license, photos, holster, ammo, etc. If they paid the money for all of that and took the time to research carry options on the Internet (probably paying for that too) I think they are interested in learning the best possible carry choice. Buying a gun makes you safe, like buying a guitar makes you a musician. You have to train with the tool if you're serious about becoming proficient with it. I don't think patting them on the back and saying "it's OK, you can't afford to learn to carry and be efficient with your firearm" is a good idea. I think it's irresponsible. They put the time and money into getting a license and firearm. Now they are seeking guidance on carry and self defense. Now they see the VAST majority carry with a round in the chamber and there's a reason for that. So what to do? For now more research! There is tons for great teaching information on the Web and great instructional videos on the internet. With some snap caps you can become proficient at drawing, pressing the trigger and changing mags without ever leaving your home or spending any money. Training? Think of something you buy everyday. A cup of coffee, pack of gum, smokes, etc. Say you spend a buck a day on that item. Stop buying it, save the dollar and before long you can afford a good training class. [/QUOTE]
