Thank you so much for all the responses. A lot of good information to consider that I had not even thought of (I knew that would happen!).
I like the idea of the gun range with rentals so I can try different models out to find out what I like best. I appreciate all the comments about revolvers versus semi’s and the reasons why to choose one over the other. Lots of good food for thought.
I have not settled on anything yet but did not really know how to begin to assemble a list of which guns to consider, so your answers have been very helpful!
Everyone has been a great help with getting me to the next step.
Thanks!
