Glock as first gun

[SB1]

Larry, My apologies!

My post was not meant to discourage you. I felt it necessary though to realize how tedious the permit process is to make sure it is what you want to do.

I sent you a PM with some info. I hope it helps and good luck with your decisions/moving.

Welcome to THR, Larry!

Glocks are fine guns, but I'd recommend fondling, handling, and dry firing a bunch of makes and models before buying any gun, presuming, of course, that you have to buy before you can shoot.

If not, I recommend the above plus shooting any make or model you're considering buying. There must be ranges not too far from you that rent guns.

You may get lucky and find the perfect handgun for you without ever having shot one first. In my experience, that would be very unusual.

Good luck!
