She put nearly 50 rounds through it, and I sent a few downrange as well. Her pistol is small enough that it feels like I'm palming the thing.
I also put 50 rounds through my 1911. It's the first time shooting it since I added the Hogue grips. An adjustment was needed, as the wider stock was pushing my first shots low and to the right. After compensating, 95% of my shots stayed in the center, which is gratifying.

The skies have been mostly clear today, and although it's still 46 degrees, the winds have the chill around 30. The weatherman says we're to get a rain/snow mix tonight, with highs in the 30s tomorrow. Maybe we'll get some snow soon.

I spent last weekend taking my Glock 32 for her first walk... great .357 Sig round, flat trajectory and accurate right out of the box. My father and I put about 30 rounds through it and a number of other caliber pistols (revolvers and semi) to enjoy some bonding time.
Glad to see that we're not alone :)
I'd like to get a little pistol too. Is this one you would recommend? It's pouring rain here at about 34degrees today.
Steven, you're among friends here. :^)
Cassie, there are several choices; the one she has is a 5-shot revolver. We bought it new for $490. However, you can get a Kel-tec P3AT for $225 or so; it's a 6-shot semi-auto.
Either one will require practice; neither would be much fun for extended practice sessions, unless you also buy some padded shooting gloves. Either, however, beats the heck out of being empty-handed.
