My teen daughter asked me to teach her to shoot, which came as a bit of a shock as I didn't prompt/push at all (well... ok, not much, but she did ask out of the blue... and the fact that my wife is pretty anti-gun, but begrudgingly accepts that we have them in the house).
I feel fairly confident that I can muddle through the "Four Rules" ok, using @SouthNarc's expanded explanations to help out some.
But, what then?
I'm going to take her to a rural area on some friend's land where we can be outside, unhurried, be around friends, and avoid the whole gun-range environment.
My first problem is that I only own a couple guns, and I want to introduce them in a way that won't make her apprehensive, especially about recoil/muzzle blast. Last summer, we shot up an aluminum can with a BB gun as an introduction. I was going to use:
-a bolt-action .22LR (my mom's "squirrel popper")
-an AR-15
-a Beretta PX4CC
Unfortunately, I don't own .22 handgun or anything like that. In what order should I do the guns? Obviously the BA .22 first, but what next?
Other than the Four Rules, what else should I teach? How about stance? Should I have her shoot prone with the rifles and standing with the pistol?
I obviously want this to be a positive experience, so help me out.
Thanks.
