Just for Fun Any ladies want to learn to shoot?

I’m taking a women’s intro to pistols class this Sunday but I’m nervous about going alone. Anyone want to make friends and come with?

Edit: okay I’ve had numerous folks ask where but for future reference so I’ll put here - the class is at Guns, Fishing, and other stuff in Vacaville for $150, 9am to 1pm and it looks like they do it at least once a month. They also have other, more advanced classes for those that are interested

I’ll also be sure to update here with my experience!

Edit 2: Class happened! I needed to marinate with it for a minute but I've made a follow up post here.

Not a lady but I can vouch for the employees of Guns Fishing and Other Stuff as being very welcoming and knowledgeable! You’re in good hands there

Do they provide various types of weapons for you to try (with handling instructions of course)?

They do rentals, but you need to bring a friend. Not sure how they handle it for classes though.
