I would recommend the first handgun purchase to be something that is extremely popular. Like a glock 19, s&w k frame, ruger gp100, a colt 1911. Whatever style of gun, go with one of the "you can't go wrong" choices. The first handgun is probably one that he will want to keep, might as well make it a quality piece.
My regret on my first pistol is I went with something uncommon and obscure because I thought it was a good deal. It was a CZ 40P. Seemed very well made, but when I shot it, I felt horrible trigger slap. After one magazine, my trigger finger was stinging in pain. I couldn't stand it and ended up selling it for a loss. If I could have done it over, I would have went with one of the more established models.
