Youth guns for target shooting

My wife has pistols and rifles she has yet to shoot, purchased by me, and occasionally test fired by me. My objective is always to keep others’ hands off my firearms first and foremost so buying a few others, having the kids build their own ARs; it’s just less headache for me.

Maybe what she really needs is a training/live fire coarse to empower her own interest rather than feeling like a tag along. Few people enjoy being the least proficient in the room at whatever the game is. It’s only money...lol.
That was in the works. We dont have a lot of that stuff around here like that. I was going to pay for her to take a course and found out the school closed. I do agree she doesnt like tagging along. We went to the range together last summer and my DA forgot my mags and ammo so instead of "babysitting" her while she shot her two handguns I stayed back and BS with a guy I know from the club. Man was she mad. I said well you dont like me "watching" you and now you dont like when I give you freedom. Pick one woman! :uhoh: She said I am supposed to do that with her and not ditch her. But, last time I ran out of ammo and just sat on the table watching her she was mad I was "watching her" and it made her feel rushed and intimidated.

I am working 2 jobs to pay off some debt and she is working OT to remodel her house so purchases need to be thought out. Can you loan me some money? lol.

This weekend I plan on taking her to a shop that has way more inventory and just standing back and letting her fit and pick. Her B day is the 26th and I wasnt sure what to get her so if she picks out a rifle I will buy the scope and stuff for her.

Sounds like a good plan. I've been trying to get my wife into shooting for years, so even if it's only temporary enjoy it while it lasts! ;)
