Had an awesome family BBQ this weekend. As usual, at some point over the weekend, we made it to the home range on my property. Was a blast as always. Pistols, rifles, etc. A grandson fired his first weapon this go round, a Marlin .22 that his uncle (my 17yr old youngest) owns. Was a special moment. Well..... Aunt Bunny decides she want to learn how to shoot. Aunt Bunny is my 53 yr old sister. She had never fired a weapon in her life. Admittedly, she has asked before but, just didn't get to it. Well, this weekend was different. She fired multiple handguns, 9mm, .38, &.45
She also shot my Rem 700 in 30.06 Amazingly she put it right in the bullseye 
She was SUPER fired up about it all, & REALLY excited about it. Now... reality is.... I really was only able to touch on the most basic of basics in an afternoon. She really wants to purchase a handgun of her own. She actually asked me to take her to purchase one. I told her hell no, she wasn't ready to own one, & that she needed to take a safety class or two & get some real comprehensive hands on training. I instructed her that only THEN would I endorse her buying a handgun, even though my endorsement isn't needed...lol. She agreed, & acknowledged the need.
She's seriously a SUPER NOOB & very ignorant to firearms. I figured some of you NOVA fellers could direct me to the right class, & or range to help her. Again, she lives in Vienna. I told her I would ask around, & find the best range/classes in her area to help her become a responsible gun owner.
Thanks in advance for the help..!
