Basic handgun training for women?

[FiremanBob]

The GF has expressed an interest in learning to shoot. She has never handled a gun. I thought we'd get a Ruger MkII for her to start with.

I recommended that she begin with top-grade professional instruction. I would appreciate recommendations for women-friendly or women-exclusive training at the noobie level.

Thanks.

American Firearms School in N. Attleboro is a good place to go. Its not necessarily "woman friendly" or "woman exclusive" but it seems like they make every effort to cater to the individual needs of a shooter regardless of experience level. They'll work with ya to get her all trained up. Personal training is reasonably priced as well.

Where are you located?

NEShooters is running a womens only defensive handgun class in April. I'd contact Jim Conway about the prerequisite experience level needed.

Send her to GOAL for the basic pistol course. My wife did that for her LTC. Jon Green is the best trainer around.
