Follow up- very nice handgun, I now wish I knew about these years ago..
After my son (13) got done mowing the lawn today, I Taught him how to change oil in a car, then offered to take him on a range trip to shoot hand guns. He had never shot a handgun before so was a bit hesitant, but wanted to go anyway.
I started him off on a Ruger mkIi, but he seemed a bit underwhelmed by it
So I told him he could try shooting some .38s. He shot all of those (a few dozen) and I told him he could try a .357 if he felt like it. He ended up shooting up a whole box of them one at a time in his little game of 'can I shoot one more.'
Not only did he have a lot of fun, but he shot it really well up until the end where he started jerking the trigger.
He also shot ip a box of .45s..., kids can be expensive
