Ok, I have been taking my mom to the range and going over basics with her a few times here lately. She has owned a pistol for quite some time but never practiced much. However, here recently she told me that it is time to learn more about how to shoot and wanted to learn to defend herself as well as get her permit. So, we have went to the range and she has shot her .38 as well as my M&P autos and a couple others which led to her deciding she does not want a .38 anymore. It was interesting to see her come to the decision on her own as she said it was a major fear of her to only have five shots where the M&P9c gives her twelve. Also, it was her opinion that it was much easier to shoot the M&P over her .38 which kind of surprised me.
Now, I am still taking her to the range and we have went over safety A LOT as well as shooting but I would like to get her a pistol class as a gift later in the year. However, I do not know what would be a good class to teach more fundamentals to a newer shooter or better yet where to get it at? For me I am looking at different types of classes such as Tactical Response but for her I was thinking maybe NRA basic type courses. Are there any offered in central Indiana that are taught by good instructors or groups? Also, are there any tailor made for new women shooters?
Thanks
