 Youngest will soon be living alone as her son and his girlfriend close on their house hopefully tomorrow. She hunts and fishes (I tease her she's the son I never had...) and is very competent with rifles but has limited experience with handguns. She wanted to buy a Ruger LCP but I recommended against it because it's so light and tiny. I said I'd give her my Walther PP. Bigger, heavier, less recoil. She came down today and I took her through the manual of arms with it and had her fire a couple of magazines from 7 yards. That target includes 3 rounds from hammer down to introduce her to the atrocious trigger pull. I think she's good to go. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | ||

Nice gift Paul. My daughter graduated college in 2003 and for her graduation gift she asked for a hand gun. After handling many, and shooting a few different ones, she decided on a Walther P99. No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride. | |||
