Yep! My wife since being introduced to handguns last summer has taken to it like a fish to water.

Yesterday, we did the paperwork and paid for her very own M&P .45! In forty-eight hours, we'll be taking it home and hopefully dragging it to the range for her birthday on Saturday! Happy Birthday to her!

My wife enjoys shooting with me. She doesn't go too often, but she has no objection to it, and she usually shoots quite well. She was a little turned off the last time, as she wore the wrong shirt to the range. We were going out to dinner and a date after shooting, and she wore her "cleavage" shirt. She ended up with a hot .45 shell casing down the canyon. Yowza. You should have seen the look on her face. LOL!!!

That happened to my wife last time she went too! It was hilarious--to me at least!

My wife likes to shoot (she prefers the Ruger P345), but since we had the baby 3 months ago she hasn't been shooting.

Yes, but on different days or there would be trouble.

My wife usually comes shooting with me. She has a KelTec P3AT, which is most decidedly NOT a range gun, so she shoots my XD 45c and LOVES it! She is better than I am at hitting clays with the 12 gauge, but she has way more experience at that than I do (she grew up doing it and I have only been once)! She even enjoys shooting my Mosin Nagant M91/30 which, with the bayonet on is 1" taller than her!
