So here' the deal guys and gals. My girlfriend and have been to the shooting range twice in the two months we've been dating. She's new to shooting, but really enjoys it and is interested in learning more. She'd like to take a class designed for/taught by women.
In doing research, I've found some beginner classes nearby (within an hour or two of College Station), though none geared for women. KR training out of Austin seems to be the best I've been able to find with my weak google fu. If yall (especially you ladies) know of any really good ones I'd love to hear about them.
The second thing is gun selection. She really enjoys shooting my Buckmark .22, but doesn't like my sig 226 9mm. Too much recoil for her. Also, shooting my SP101 with 38's is out since she can't pull the trigger in double action. I'm thinking a .380 would work for her, and she really likes the looks of the Walther PK380. She does plan on eventually getting her CHL, and she will be the one making the selection on the gun. I'm just trying to help her find a good place to start as I have no experience with .380s.
I appreciate all yall's thoughts and ideas.
