    My sister, a gun hater actually got a gleam in her eye when she held my Beretta. Everyone I know who has fired the Beretta remarks on how well it fits the hand, all hands.

    I used to have a 10-22 set up like that for my daughter. She enjoyed it when younger, but as she matured she liked a more traditional set up more.

    Shooting lots of different makes and models of guns is always the best way to decide what one shoots best with.

    This is awesome, and those smiles show there having a blast!

    I remember when I was young and my grandpa took my brothers and I out parie dog hunting on his farm/ranch in NE Colorado, he drove the truck like a mad man with us in the back bed, catching air over bumps and such. He stopped all of sudden then got out with his very old pump .22 and said "well shoot the god damn things" He started unloading then we started shooting. We shot a couple and the next thing we heard was "what the hell you waiting for run after them before they crawl back down the damn hole" So we did with bullets wizing past us.  :D

    Moral of the story is gun safety is very important, even though grandpa could drop a coyote with open sights on a .22 magnum from 500 yards...safety first.

    That .410 was their great-grandfathers and still shoots like a champ!

    First 2 guns I ever owned. 12 years old and I got .410 and 16 gauge shotguns.
    Man, that brings back tons of memories.

    This was my wedding gift to my wife. She prefers a 12 gauge but it's hard to find a holster for it, so she carry the Colt.

    I have a real hard on for Sig Sauer, the entire line. But for pistols I recently fired the PPX and loved the overall feel. If you are going 9mm, which is what I fired, I recommend you give it a go.
