I don't know him specifically, but I am a husband myself, and I know we husbands can have a tendency to "coach" our wives sometimes when we would be better off simply butting out. :mrgreen:

Am I off the mark?
Not at all! That's why I asked if you knew him - thought it was just him that was like that. LOL

Checked out the link you posted, now just have to figure out what will fit into my schedule!

I would go without your husband. Let you focus on what the instructor is teaching instead of hubbie's commentary.

Do you know my husband? ;-)

Re: Been called a lot of things....

Thanks for the welcome!
We're in the far north Dallas 'burbs, and the NRA Basic Pistol class is first on my list of things to do! I've been doing some research on those, but would love some personal recommendations.
I should mention that my husband is quite experienced with guns of all types, and he'll be by my side the whole time (at least until I'm comfortable enough to go to a Girls Only class or get together! :mrgreen: ).

c-dub - I think part of what finally lit a fire under me is that fact that my kiddo just enlisted, and dad wants to help her get some experience with different weapons before she ships to BCT. There's even talk of building an M4!
I'm proud and excited for her, and I want to learn right along with her!

Thanks again for the welcome! I can tell already that there are a lot of really knowledgeable folks here.

Been called a lot of things....

...but "Lady" isn't one of them! :lol:

I just thought I'd take a second to introduce myself, since I've been lurking about for a week or more now!
I've more or less been around guns my entire life (dad fully excercises his 2A right) but have only held a few different hand guns, never fired any. Dad's been after me for years to not only learn to shoot, but also to get my CHL. I just never had much of an interest in it. My husband has also been "badgering" me for a number of years about this, so I'm finally giving in. ;-)

"Giving in" isn't really the right term. I'm finally interested, willing, and even excited about it. I've been doing a lot of research and reading, and am very much looking forward to being comfortable enough handling a weapon so I can take some tactical shooting classes.

That's it, in a nutshell. I'm very much a newbie, but I'll try really hard not to ask any stupid questions, or at least look for the answers myself before I do!
