I have a female co-worker who is interested in buying her first fire arm. She knows very little about fire arms and I feel it my duty to help her along being that I had a co worker help me along when I first was interested in fire arms. The problem I am running in to is that I feel more encouraged to teach her, than she is to learn.
She reports to me at work, and said she wanted my approval before she carried at work, I've always had a pretty lax carry policy for my employees provided I felt that other co-workers would not be in danger of the person with the fire arm.
I am totally confident she will be responsible, I just don't want her to go out and make a bad decision on a gun she will never use, or take advice from another male who may not have a females point of view on fire arms for females. Any one been in a situation like this before? I am not a lady therefore do not know what is the perfect carry piece for a lady though I have some ideas. At the current point we have gone over calibers and different brands of guns, we have yet to go to the range and she has only handled a few of my guns. What steps would you take next outside of going to the range, and handling some other fire arms?
Andy advice would be greatly appreciated!
