Well mama got the urge today since the toy store hand a sale this week. Soooo off we go. Incredibly busy for a sunday, but she got to fondle a few very nice pistols. She was looking to just handle a few different pistols to see which one she likes. Now I do have a decent selection and she does have a BHP at OnTarget getting some work done, but this her first selection. She tried a couple Sigs, CZ Rami, CZ 75, XD SC9, and many more. She finally got to the case with the H&K's, Para Ordinance, and Kimbers. She liked the Para LDA 3.5" and the H&K USP compact. After much thought, she decided on the H&K USP compact 9mm. Pretty good taste don't you think? She has not shot it yet as the "Instant" background check hit a snag.:banghead: The salesman warned her not to be alarmed because 50% of the computerized checks had failed today. Kidda' silly since you have to have a permit to purchase a pistol anyway, but that's another story Any thoughts on how she did for her first pick? I stayed clear while she made the choice (I personally liked the LDA, of course I'm a 1911 fan). I just kept telling her "It's up to you. You will be the one shooting it." I don't think she will be "under gunned" with a 9mm, beside it will make a nice backup to my 1911.
