Breaking in the wife
Well guys hope this helps with your wives, first time at the range for my wife today and victory! She did great, with that said this was the method.
firearms in order
bersa thunder 22
CZ SP01 tacticle
Bodyguard 380
NRA basic pistol is totally worth it, do it!
We established her stance and NAA
Grip and trigger control
Breath control
dry fire (eyes open and eyes closed)
Then 4 round groups at 5yds
Then 4 round groups at 7yds
Next rounds the same but with CZ (she loved duh!)
Then 18yds with the CZ (phenomenal results 4 rounds inside 5")
Back to 5yds with the bodyguard
Finally the bodyguard 380 (first thing out of her mouth "I don't like this gun or trigger)
Of course not after shooting a full size handgun, but the point was she is confident after her first time and knows the bodyguard is just for carry to possibly save her life, or whatever small conceal handgun she chooses.
Victory! She understands the progression, can't wait to go again!
I'm going to let her pick her carry piece, I won't make the mistake of picking it out for her.
Hope this helps guys!
