Took my daughter in law and her mother out today to shoot. Seems they both want a firearm for home protection. Not CCW, maybe later. Both are noobs. I have hanguns and shotties of most every caliber and type and I wanted them to see what they felt comfortable with.

For simplicity they both locked onto revolvers. They felt SA’s too complicated and slides were too hard.

Prolly going to go buy 3” or 4” Ruger or Smith 6 round revolvers. They liked my J Frames, but decided the bigger rosco’s were easier to aim and had more capacity.

Mother and daughter’s eyes lit up when I told them 7 shot revolvers that weren’t horribly big were also avwilable.

The first gun I bought my wife is a K frame six-shooter. She’s very good with it.

Bought her a Ruger LC9 recently but she’s struggling with it. (Racking the slide and being left-handed.)
