I have taken my wife to our local outdoor range a few times. I think she would go a lot more with me if we could find child care for our two small kids!
I took her about 2 weeks ago, it was her 3rd time ever to shoot a pistol, and she was knocking down the 6" steel plates from 15 yards away with a 2" model 60 .38 Spl! At one point she hit 5 out of 5. Then when we ran out of .38 ammo, I got out the .22 Ruger, and she hit 10 out of 10 from 15 yards!
Watch out, those women are more accurate than we may think.
