I just posted in the "general forum", I should have posted here but I forgot this thread and I am seldom in this forum.
In the past 5 months I have taken two new guys to the range with me that have never before fired a gun. The first guy five months ago bought a S&W Model 64 and has already taken classes and has received his CCW. The guy today (a business owner), after time on the firing line, also expressed interest in purchasing a CZ like mine, taking a class and getting his CCW.
I just mention this to show how easy it is, with very little effort, to introduce new people to shooting and have them accept that guns are not evil but just the opposite.
