New gun ownership

I own a gun now and need to learn how to use it!

Good for you! What kind?

Congratulations! What kind did you get? For what purpose did you buy it?

Do you have any friends that are responsible gun owners? My brother is a police detective and a certified firearms instructor. When someone asks me for training, I refer them to him and we will go down to our family cabin for some low-key and low-pressure familiarization and training.

I have a 9mm Lifer. It was a gift for self defense. My son is a responsible gun owner and I will see him next week

Welcome to the forum and to gun ownership!
Definitely take classes from a trained instructor and make sure to practice.
With gun ownership comes responsibility!
What is a "Lifer"?

How are things going so far?

Congratulations! My husband and I are both firearms instructors and thoroughly enjoy introducing people to shooting and learning how to become responsible, competent firearm owners. I'd suggest looking into any reputable women-only classes in your area, sometimes removing the pressure of learning around men (especially those you know), can help immensely. Enjoy your new gun!
