I want to start with the understanding that I am not attempting to be condescending.
Today, we picked up an sp101 in .357.
I know that there are many threads on helping the wife get weapons, and what is best for her, and how she should be in charge of the decisions. I am more interested in how to help her to get from nervous and mousy around her new gun, to having confidence in carrying, defensive thinking and shooting.
I am looking for your list, 1 through ..., A to Z, whatever.
Background is as follows. She needs to think she is doing this, and not me. She needs to own it. This is not a high priority for her. She is kind of playing along. She is generally nervous around guns, but willing to learn. I have looked for woman only training, but haven't had much luck. I have checked the NRA website for local classes, but nothing relatively close.
Today is a good start, and I don't want to turn her away from this.
