I noticed recently there have been a lot of threads about getting people out to the range for the first time. So I thought I would try to get my wife to the range.
We have been together for 24 years and she has always supported my interest in firearms and the shooting sports, but never really had any interest in getting involved.
Asked her for about the 1000th time, tonight and she finally accepted. We are actually working on firearms safety over the weekend, then headed out to the range on Monday.
I have a good line up of guns for her to try going start with a 22 and see how it goes. Also bringing a 380, 9mm and if she really seems to do well she wants to try my 1911 .45acp.
My angle is get her involved, licensed and maybe she will get me a new gun for Christmas!!!
So hopefully another shooter in the field and LTC holder in the state!!!!!
If anybody has ideas that worked well when they brought a first time shooter out, please post them below. I want to make this a great day for her!!!
