I do what I want
OP it's awesome to see someone wanting to take the initiative to learn to shot properly and try it out... I have always said 99% of those who are against guns and shooting are that way because they do don't know how to operate a fire arm and are there for afraid of them which is understandable... I have been shooting since I could hold a gun and have shot professionally for many years... I would highly suggest taking a couple of beginners classes such as a concealed carry class... I would also suggest getting a nice 9mm pistol to start... They are cheap to get and cheap to shoot... The springfield XD, Walter P99's, Glock 23's are all pistols I was thinking of purchasing next... I ultimately decided on on the Walter due to how it fits my hands... I would think the XD and Walther would work well for you and your wife... I suggested a 9mm due to how cheap ammo is and if you and your wife take to shooting it could be used as a nice concealed carry pistol where as a 22 would be virtually useless in that sense... Rifle shooting is a whole new experience that I would suggest you take up after you get used to pistol shooting and decide if it's something you both can enjoy... Like I said though it is nice to see someone willing to get into as I'm sure you will enjoy it greatly once you become comfortable... Just remember firearms are a tool they can cause harm just like any other tool but used correctly they can be tons of fun, safe, and can be very usuful such as ultimately protecting you or your family one day... If you have any further questions or concerns feel free to ask man its just like audio you gotta start learning somewhere...
