Default I am a lucky man

My wife till recently has never fired a gun. Now I am proud to announce she bought her 1st gun. A Ruger LCR .38. I can not believe how light this thing is. Next step CCW for her.

Congrats. The wife and I are working on her permit application this weekend for her to carry her Bersa Thunder. She has been after me for a while to help her get this done and I have been remiss in my duties as a husband to get it done. I will get it done soon though.

A very pretty pistol, I can't wait to get a pistol that is more appropriate for my wife to fire, and get her addicted

The only sure way to not get issued a CCW in California is by not applying.

Congrats. I bought my wife the very same pistol for Christmas because she is "recently" new to shooting, has dainty hands and just didn't feel comfortable cycling the semi autos. We got her through the Utah class so that she can carry when we travel the west - on our HD.
I hope that your wife enjoys shooting it, it's a fine gun.

Congrats to you.

GF is wanting to learn how handle and fire weapons and is considering a CCW in the future. I won't push her for she has to make the decision to accept the responsibilities that go with CCW.

Rubber side down, shinny side up. Ride safe brother.
